> Also, there's an easy way to avoid not feeling like you own your Tesla: don't buy a Tesla. I mean, as of now you really have to go out of your way to get one - so if they're "fucking over consumers" so bad with this, why would you buy it? This isn't something they're springing on you after a purchase, they're warning you years in advance.

I won't, but did you read what I posted? Allowing this to pass unchallenged will hurt everyone.

But the way you challenge it is by not buying into it. The policy is restrictive and perhaps a bit paranoid, sure, but that doesn't mean that it needs to be made illegal. Tesla can't force anyone to buy its cars and if this is such a poor value proposition for most people, then I don't see how it'll succeed. They don't have a monopoly on anything they're doing.
