Yes let’s. You are inventing an imaginary problem.
You could be radicalized by Chinese communists here on lemmy. Developers could weight code and front page algorithms to manipulate you. See what I did there?
What did you to there? Get drunk and talk nonsense?
Legitimate issues were raised, software fails all the time due to bugs. If you consider this an imaginary problem you probably have no idea what people are discussing about in this thread, and by replying with some crap about the Chinese you are not really making clear that you have no idea what people are discussing about in this thread.
I’d say you are welcome to get this subscription yourself but the truth is that, as many have already said, this shouldn’t be allowed, to protect idiots that don’t see this as a problem and could end up dying so that a corporation can make a couple bucks more. You are welcome.
Has THIS software failed in over three years of sales? Have these airbags failed anymore than the literal hundreds of thousands of computer controlled air bags sold in cars every day? How is the recent air bags recall that was caught any different than the ones in the in the mid 90s?
Same reasoning that idiot of my mate does. He’s never got any girls pregnant by pulling out so he’s happy to continue.
Also, you should give Russian roulette a go, it can be fun.
Hardware recalls happen but are rare and in between. Software bugs, for something dependent on checking something over an internet connection? Yeah not thanks.
And the fact that it hasn’t failed yet doesn’t mean the new version that goes out in a rush next week will not be buggy, enshittification and all.
Listen to the software enginees in this thread they know what they are talking about.
Plus basic human decency: a life shouldn’t be saved or not based on wether a subscription has been paid, we can be better than this as a species, and should expect more from regulations around business.
Current “data” means fuck all. The fact that they haven’t had a serious bug, or that it hasn’t occurred while the device needed to deploy is not an indicator that there won’t be problems, sorry doesn’t work that way.
Let’s ban all airbags because of the takata recall! They are all controlled by computers! Let’s ban rock climbing rope because they could miss something in QA! Let’s ban seat belts, Honda had a 300k recall so there is plenty of room for mistakes happening there!
I can make shit up related to safety gear all day because it’s just paranoia and a lot of anti corporatism under a thin veil.
They have sold millions of these things. Zero failures related to the hysteria here. Zero. You can make a great argument about the morals of profiting from safety gear. But at the end of the day they have made safety gear more accessible. Their shit does and has saved lives. This theoretical imaginary not deploying has afftected 0.
So what we’re left with is more safety gear being deployed and saving lives right now, at a long term overall cost than buying outright and will disproportionately affect the poor? And that’s an insane value proposition? Far from perfect in my view but I bet if you ask anyone on the subscription plan who has crashed a bike they’d disagree and probably not own the airbag.
Ahh more slippery slope crap. Maybe let’s get on their shit if something actually happens.
The product has been around for years now without issues.
Yes let’s talk about it once someone actually dies

You don’t ban shit for theoretical edge cases.

👌👍 just continue to ignore the current data

Die in a fire. Then we’ll talk about it.
Let’s ban fairs! A company might fuck up and hurt someone! Pools too, infact let’s just ban swimming, a life guard might fuck up!
Oh yeah, you’re totally naming safety devices that exist to function in emergency situations!
Fucking vegetable.

I’m gonna stop feeding the troll.
I know. You can’t address it so I’m a troll. Continue to raise hysteria over an imaginary event. Fascist on both sides of me.
Your strawmanning only proves how fucking stupid you know your arguments are. Grow up and stop being pathetic.
Whatever you say. You all are riled up over an imaginary event that hasn’t happened yet 🤷♂️
