Yes, I think you are missing the point. It used to,be cheap to,get a key, and as many replacement keys as you wanted for cars, but then so eone thought of a way to,force people to buy very expensive chipped keys and anti theft devises which have to be replaced if too many chipped keys are ordered (according to the dealer I spoke, with). The point I’m trying to make,is that it’s a money making scheme for the company. While it woild be fine to,offer it as an option to folks who want it, that isn’t the case, and they have forced everyone to get it now.

And now we see a new “service” where the car is controlled remotely- how,long before that service becomes mandatory too?

I used to buy hamburgers 15 for a dollar on Thursday's else they were 10¢ each. A year ago you could still buy two chicken sandwiches for two dollars at McDonalds, now you get two for five dollars.
