How long until you have to buy ad block and uBlock origin for the infotainment?

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

buy uBlock

my brother, did you pay for uBlock?

Nah but Stellantis will create it so people who bought the extended warranty can add on this perk

Just rip it out and replace it.

I'm sensing a future where cars are becoming like cell phones and laptops, a single unit without replaceable core parts. And they'll have ads built right in.

That future is now. Most modern cars have the dashboard computer completely integrated and you can't remove it without crippling the vehicle.

It's really not that simple. There are basic car functionalities that are built into the infotainment system these days. I've seen some aftermarket fixes but frankly I'd rather just choose a different vehicle.
