Precisely because the government drags their feet with proper regulation is why we are here
The corporations keep eroding your rights to own anything in the contracts they make you sign (to buy a car for example)
They reserve the right to turn features off or hide them behind paywalls without your agreement ... They reserve the right to spy on your with sensors you paid for and sell the data to whomever they want without compensation to you or liability over the consequences of that data being out there
They reserve the right to terminate your warranty if you do anything to your car they do not approve of
These measures literally dilute what "owning a car" means... This is what people refer to when they say ownership is coming to an end. It doesn't mean you can't have a car... It means the car is not quite yours and may be doing more work and money for someone else after you nicely paid for it
