it is already not allowed to secretly film someone and share the footage.

But it’s perfectly OK to do as long as you’re the only one watching it afterwards!?

campaigns to “focus on driving while driving” have already been running for 15 years here.

They’re the same as on an ICE, There’s little to no difference between ICE and EV on the low-voltage 12VDC systems.

This really still only scales to impact poor -> middle class people, above that and even though they pay the same percentage, their overhead is just big enough to absorb it without the same impact to their lives. Saying “it is what it is” to a €120.000 ticket really shows how little it actually hit people like this, it’s a nuisance but ultimately nothing more.

But what is the answer? Higher fines isn’t doing much to change this behavior, even withdrawing licenses and impounding cars have very limited effect. Do we throw people in prison for being inattentive in a car?

I hate that camera surveillance in cars is happening like that. Unfortunately people have also been proven to be absolute morons when driving and doing all sorts of other shit than actually keeping their eyes on the road, and inattentive driving is the leading cause of accidents. So this is sort of something people brought on themselves by being idiot drivers.

Luckily iPhone is far from the only smartphone anywhere in the world.

No it’s not, that’s a different graph although it has similar data.

That edit with the link came after my comment it seems

That graphic is less than useless without any source to back it up though…for all we know this could be AI garbage you just generated.

Because they can and will try to compile a case on you if they can track significant amounts of upload from you. They will silently do that for years before knocking on your door.

Not that I’m aware of.

They’re fishing with a very large net. I once got a letter saying I illegally downloaded a movie I never downloaded, so their accuracy is also pretty horrible.

Don’t even need to respond, just toss the letter. You will never hear from them again. But do use a VPN when torrenting from especially Germany.

commenting “it won’t happen” on every single fucking post

But I don’t do that, I can’t be blamed for actions of others

Sadly this is not pessimism but just realism. You are free to block me if that’s too uncomfortable or annoying

The could, and probably should, but they won’t.

Sadly then you’re relegated to the “simple nerd” designator…please go stand in the corner, you’re blocking the line.

This douche is like a real life Barney Stinson with a victim complex.
