Looks like Ford just voted to NOT be my choice of car vendor in future.
However getting this patent could be used by Ford to prevent such systems from beeing used by all vendors, but thats veery unlikely i guess.
Afaik they’re a discount brand? That you have to buy from Newegg? But I’m glad there is at least one option!
If they don’t included tracking, recording, spying, and advertising, they’re premium at this point.
