Ya thats where I'm at right now. On one hand I detest the data/privacy nonsense and the unfair subsidies but... on the other I think a fire under these companies asses to innovate and compete is long overdue. Also our EV infrastructure just doesn't seem like it's quite there yet. Something has to change because I just don't think cars are worth what they are asking right now.
It is not just about data/privacy concerns (which are underestimated imo, as China pursues an own agenda with collecting your data through Chinese tech) and 'unfair' subsidies, but about gross human rights violations. In short, the cheap Chinese cars are made in concentration camps where people are forced to work under catastrophic conditions.
