I've had Yanks tell me that my BYD is evil because I don't really own it, that I have to pay a subscription, that it has ads
None of which is true
You know who's pulling that sort of shit?
Other manufacturers.
NOT BYD
Right now BYD are being so heavily subsidised by the Chinese government that they are imported into the US and Europe at less than production and shipping cost.
Believe me when I say that as soon as they have enough market share they will be doing this, and because china are hyper-capitalist when it comes to exports it will be more intrusive and more inconvenient.
Well, Yank, that's great
But I live in neither the US nor Europe (which is not a homogeneous mass)
