Apparently (some) people are buying Tesla cars again.

I'm really wondering why.

I've seen a man who's phone didn't work, his connection failed, and he needed to borrow a wifi Hotspot connection to be able to open, and start his car. Apparently they don't offer proper car keys? I think from that interaction alone, I refuse to ever go for an electric car, or Tesla.

The cameras and monitoring traps car companies are putting into new cars is disgusting, and right up the police state run version of the future I would like to avoid at all costs.
It's not just Tesla that's gone camera monitoring and has tattle-tale software designed to contact the cops if the cars AI system detects you've done something you aren't suppose to do.

I'll stick to old gas gutters that keep electronics out of the vehicle, and my privacy intact.

I have been driving a Tesla since June 2022 (at the time, Elon Musk was not the idiot he turned out to be). All Tesla cars come with two key cards that allow you to open and start the car in case of a phone problem. So unless you don't carry a wallet and rely only on your phone, you will never be stuck like the man you are talking about.

It's even worse; they have electric power locks that can fail when the car is on fire, and multiple people have died because they couldn't get out. And the self-driving is super unsafe and not reliable at all... they are death traps.
