The problem is the old cars. Really, old cars have absolutely no business on todays roads, and if you want to park your old decrepit car in my brand spanking new garage you should upgrade your car, better still, buy one of mine. Of course I can't be assed to make sure that your old car can still park in our garages. Your track width is ridiculous and the amount of horsepower you have just doesn't cut it today. So keep your silly little museum piece that's all of 10 years old now and drive around in circles on your own lot.

If you have a few million of those or are part of our circle of buddies we just might cut you some slack. But otherwise, no matter that your vehicle performed fine just yesterday, it's up to us to change the rules at will and demand that you adapt.

You're ascribing bad faith where there is none. Spammers make it difficult to keep the email system alive at all, even between big firms. If you think it's easy, go set up your own webmail firm and show them how it's done.
Carjackers make it hard to keep the road system usable at all, even between large fleets of cars. If you think it is so easy, why don't you set up your own fleet management system and show them how it is done, you miserly driver.
