“where the computer essentially shut off the batteries due to the batteries getting dangerous “
Nothing like the attack of the “Safety Police” again.
Yes. And when those cars are prevalent and forced on us, they will all have that “safety feature” built in.
But it won’t be used for other purposes.
Except when criminals are driving one and they want to capture them. Then they will use it to remotely shut off the batteries.
But only for that.
Oh, when someone is a criminal because they didn’t pay their taxes on their house, or their excise taxes on their car.
But that is, of course, only a limited use. They will never use it for any other purposes.
Except for if there is an epidemic lockdown and they want to limit travel of people so it doesn’t spread. Then, if you get more than one mile from your house, they could shut off the batteries.
Or if you are wanted for hate speech. Or if you are a Conservative. Or if Americans are using too much energy. But they would only limit you to using your EV for five miles of travel a day, to save the environment, of course. Or if you were traveling to Washington DC to engage in a protest, and the authorities got wind of it from an online forum and they didn’t want you to protest.
And so on.
But this kind of thing will never be used for those kinds of things.
Ever.
We promise. Cross our hearts and hope to die with needles sticking in our eye.
