[–] linearchaos@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) What if legislation says the feature needs to be added. And then everyone's forced to buy a license from Ford to make it happen? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago No one would be forced to buy a license from Ford. IF they decide it has to be on every car, and it's that specific system, they would have to buy it out from Ford. But legislation like that doesn't happen over night. It's planned several years in advance so everyone has time to implement it. But if that's what you're worries about. I suggest you vote for whomever is opposed to it. And if no one is opposed. I suggest you protest. permalink fedilink source parent
