Maybe educate yourself?
European auto makers and not sbubsidised to the same extent and in fact most subsidies are illegal under EU trading rules. Even in domestic markets we have to pay tax on new EV purchases, typically 20 percent.
Chinese government support of ev manufacturers has been massive and is contributing to their unsustainable national debt (that and building massive infrastructure that can't be used because they are falling down).
It's well documented, here's one of many articles:
China signals it will pull plug on subsidies for EVs with five-year plan exclusion - https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/china-signals-it-will-pull-plug-subsidies-evs-with-five-year-plan-exclusion-2025-10-29/
The CSIS research based on the business filings and Chinese government reports puts the subsidy at between 28 and 32 percent depending on the manufacturer and target market.
This is all part of China's strategy to basically undercut the opposition for long enough that they will go bankrupt.
What will happen when there is no competition? Well, you only have to look at the current prices of computer components for the answer to that.
Is it the reading or the comprehension you are struggling with?
Either way I'm sure when you finish school you will understand.
Adverts for BY D own products are still adverts.
Truth hurts?
Ok you do you.
I leased a BYD seal for the last few weeks as an extended test drive and it has adverts on the screen you use to change the climate control so...
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.
You can only install Graphene on a Google phone and there's two big issues with that:
- you are rewarding Google by buying their hardware.
- it doesn't matter how secure the os claims to be if the hardware is compromised and there is nothing you can do to convince me that a pixel doesn't have a backdoor into your data at a hardware level. If I was a conspiracy minded type I might say that Graphene is a Trojan Horse.
This is specifically only for cloud services provided by e.g. Amazon to financial institutions.
It's an extension of existing powers already applied to the companies that handle financial data.
So... Not only is the BoE the right people to to it, they are probably the only people with the expertise to do it.
I've given you all the stats but you obviously aren't reading them. Or do you not understand?
Now you have a choice. Be a better person and apologize or continue to be a toxic fuck.
Yes they do.
