    afaik, even if you don’t pay and never pay, features like onstar are still ‘active’, still have cellular connections enabled, and are still tracking your every move.

      And attempting to circumvent them results in a DMCA if you get caught! Wonderful! Fucking clown world we live in.

          Yeah, because I’m pretty sure DMCA has nothing to do with this. Trying to get a subscription service for free would possibly be a DMCA violation since you are stealing a service.

          There are many guides on how to deactivate OnStar.

          I know someone that hasn’t paid taxes in years. Hasn’t been hounded by the IRS yet. Everything in our society is people. People are fallible. The image that the system is working is more powerful than the actual system at work.
