    Electric cars are so much simpler than ICEs…they’re almost “phones with wheels”…so IF you happen to “trust” “buy” their phones, it’s not a huge jump to cars…but it’s a jump 😅 , just not on principle.

      I get your point but choosing Chinese phones as a trust example is hilarious. Every Chinese phone has a backdoor straight to China.

        Your Apple or Android have a high probability of having all or part made in China.

        I know, maybe trust was not the right expression. The issue is that we still buy them, even if we know they’re pumped full of spyware from a country that is not an ally.
