You won't own the car, you'll just request it via an app (like a self driving taxi) and then you also won't have any ability to root it.



Yes, and it will be self-driving, but the entire windshield and console will be replaced with a giant TV screen playing unmutable ads.

If you pay extra, you can have a "limited ad" experience, and see a virtual view out the windshield or even play content from partner subscription services.


That doesn't seem so bad. By that point we'll have AR headsets to drown all that out.

Of course, those will have ads too.


Yep, and if your social credit score is too low then your request will be denied and no car will show up. Don't like it? You can't protest, because no car is available to take you to the protest. Hooray for progress!

"You'll own nothing and you'll be happy."
