a fully disconnected car that does not report back to its mother ship. does. not. exist. only other option is to buy a car old enough that does not have it. also if you didn't bring this up most north americans would be blissfully unaware, as long as the car has a good cup holder.

'course it does .. any custom build shop will leave such things out on request, a great many don't even add in remote networking to begin with.
that's illegal in the EU, the car is mandated to be able to call 112 automatically, therefore it must have a cellphone in it

This is the one feature I'd actually like to have. It's a shame the adnet has to abuse everything.

Custom builds are exempt from this requirement.

An interesting late stage capitalism ad hack I’ve seen in cars : OTA digital radio transmits track metadata like artist, title, and album artwork. I’ve seen some stations transmit tiny square ads in place of album artwork, even while the song is playing.
