That’s a problem with most new technology, isn’t it? Sure its not ideal but also not a dealbreaker, unlike the tv showing ads or sharing my usage data with others

You can use smart tvs as dumb screens though, just don’t connect it to internet. Is there a similar way for Evs?
Imo its fine if they open source it when they decide to end support. The fact that app has a pristine privacy record is good enough
I choose Apple because its the lesser evil. Going fairphone/postmarketos (or degoogled android) is too much trouble and I’m not that idealistic. I respect those who do, though.

No, this line of thinking is wrong, I wish people would stop saying this. Voting with your wallet never works when 1% has >50% of wealth. It’s easier for 5% of people (wealthy, top execs) to agree on milking the rest than 95% of people to agree on boycotting a certain brand. That’s why we have regulations, we wouldn’t need them if “voting with wallets” actually worked.
Free market capitalism got us to this point, it cannot take us out of this.
