In the 2010s, we were told new tech would revolutionize transportation.

As BMW faces backlash for sticking a Spider-Man ad on its center console, we can see what it really amounted to: cars that collect vast quantities of data on us and which automakers are desperate to use to push ads on us too.

@parismarx how is BMW using the car data to facilitate it for this ad delivery? I think this is a little bit off …

@parismarx
*schmunzel* die Autoindustrie leidet an einer Sehnsucht nach Autoerotik indem sie die Quelle ihres Überlebens (den Verbraucher) maximal würgt. (Werbung, Verdongelung der Komponenten -> Reparaturunterbindung, Oversizing)

@parismarx I mean, it's BMW. Anyone who buys a BMW is a fucking idiot, in the first place, nearly as stupid as anyone who buys a Tesla. Who cares if BMW is spying on its customers? They deserve what they chose to buy.
