What choice do you have once every single provider is doing this? Seriously are we supposed to build our own car? Businesses only care about profits, so if one manufacturer sees other manufacturers doing this and making money, they will follow suit, until all cars are just another data mining machine.

What possible motivation would a car manufacturer have not to do this? It's all about $$$

Not that this is a perfect option, but it's exactly because of this I've been able to justify buying classic/collector vehicles.

They have the added benefit of either appreciating, staying put or only very mildly depreciating.

Plus I get to drive fun cars and claim a moral high ground.
