     @arstechnica Enshitification of cars is partly the fault of customers, who have accepted all of the crap.
     I want a car that has:

     - All metal roof
     - Steel rims not larger than 16 inch
     - Physical buttons for everything
     - Infotainment that is completely isolated from important systems such as door locks
     - No telemetry at all
     - Cloth seats

     So, I won't be buying a new car anytime soon.
