That makes sense. But in that case, why doesn't apple impose data privacy standards on cars that want to integrate CarPlay? It would still allow car manufacturers to design their own software. I'm not sure I'd trust CarPlay to safely operate all of the sensors and displays in a car. What if the speedometer freezes for example? Or if the car suddenly detects a car in front of it (that doesn't exist) and brakes because of it? It just seems like a really bad idea to grant such levels of control of the car to CarPlay, which isn't evaluated to the same level as standard built-in car software is (afaik).

Or, better yet, Apple should lobby for comprehensive data privacy laws in the style of GDPR, which would at least help resolve these privacy issues industry-wide. And, to their credit, it seems like they are to an extent. My opinion is that hardware car functions, such as air conditioning, windshield wipers, seat warming, etc. should be managed by the car software, and navigation and music should be managed by CarPlay. Though of course opinions may differ here.

Considering that Apple in the future is going to require even tighter integration with CarPlay (including handing over control to all screens and sensors to CarPlay), which Tesla may not like.

Prosecutors described [the next generation of CarPlay] insidiously as taking “over all of the screens, sensors, and gauges in a car, forcing users to experience driving as an iPhone-centric experience if they want to use any of the features provided by CarPlay.”

US citizens, as an exception, actually can. But one has to be in another country first. Most other countries don't let their citizens renounce their citizenship without having another citizenship.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's the country where the SIM originates. A prepaid eSIM from an EU carrier (as secondary sim) is pretty cheap though and might work if this is what they do.

Wait, that's ~~illegal~~ legal

Fixed that for you

I literally just finished season 1 today. Thanks Janet

Brexit means that there will have to be a border checkpoint installed in Kent. This isn't practical unless there is a lot of demand

AWS is very expensive. There are other compatible storage options, like Backblaze B2 and Wasabi, that are better for this use case

Thanks to the new rules from the Gaetz wing though, the Democrats can rather easily remove and replace the speaker. And they just might if they end up with a majority.

I think that if, in good faith, the person is unable to accept more CSAM due to the fact that their hard drive is full, there isn't an issue. The intent of the law is that, it someone knows something is CSAM, they need to report it. I don't think the government is going to come hard on Lemmy server owners unwittingly receiving CSAM through federation (though they certainly would want them to report and take down the CSAM on their servers)
