Mozilla released their studies, and I'm seeing a growing number of posts on the Internet about cars and the privacy nightmare they entail. I remember how this issue wasn't talked about earlier because "just buy an older car" was still prevalent. I'm so happy that people are taking notice. Thank you to this community and Mozilla for the work they are putting in!

TIL. But why would you do that ? Ain't it more convenient to keep every gen ?

We're a bit mad out here, we turned off CDMA in favour of 3G. The 3G system our main telco implemented was built for England and didn't have amps built into the specifications.

Every site that was rolled out in regional areas needed to be attended to and upgraded with amplifiers (I know as I was one of such techs) doing heaps more work during the changeover period.

I believe the main reason is to reduce the volume of channels being broadcast on, to free up for other services (our analogue TV is turned off too).
