Whoever filled the patent obviously didn’t consider the optics of this. I’m in the market for a new car and was considering a Ford. This will factor into my decision.
Can’t wait for Ford revanced.
Not to defend the mega corporation, but companies file patents for ridiculous things all the time that never end up actually being made or used.
Exactly. A few months ago the headline was a patent of Roku hijacking HDMI to show ads.
I’ll save my energy to be pissed off when this garbage actually makes it to market.
US Citizen Patents A Way To Not Buy Ford Cars
If it’s MY car why would adverts be in it? What’s next, adverts in my shed?
They would beam them into your brain if they could.
Lightspeed briefs: for the discriminating crotch
If it’s MY car why would adverts be in it?

if there’s a really good way to bring ads inside your car, I’m happy someone patented it. it means fewer people will use it
Oh good, I wouldn’t want to escape the barrage of ads, ever.

as is traditional, one of our corporate innovators seeks to protect citizens (never simply consumers, no, no!) with a defensive patent - sure to now be locked away in a safe until natural corporate patent expiration 1000 years hence.
now and forevermore we shalll sing in praise of this beneficent corporate citizen and their efficacious lawyerly thrust deep into the heart of our once inevitable (but now vanquished) future boring dystopia of ads beamed directly into our brains 24/7.
Imagine trying to use your finger to click the tiny x of the ad that covered your windshield while you’re on the highway
They would never do that, that would be dangerous. But at red lights, or when you first start the motor, or at the gas station? Oh you betcha betcha betcha
Maybe, just maybe Ford is doing all these horrid patents so they can just hold on to them so no one can make them… Would actually be pretty brilliant . That being said wayze already has ads.
