    I don’t exactly think holding hostage updates and functionality at the expense of user privacy makes them “better” than anyone. If anything, it’s worse, because it shows malicious intent rather than mere oversight or lack of care.

      The owners can still get updates, they’ll just have to go to a service centre to get it installed, like other brands drivers have to do regardless

      Would privacy conscious drivers believe the car wasn’t reporting to Tesla if it could still get over the air updates?

        The owners could have the choice of having the functionality they want, rather than pettily removing functionality if they won’t let you store all their personal data.
