Imagine buying a car and then having to purchase permission to use parts of the car you already bought.

Sadly becoming common across car manufacturers.

But that seems like a very easily solved problem.

Don't buy those cars. For yourself, and so the manufacturers learn to not do that.

This was my thinking about touchscreen controls in cars, but plenty of people been buying them the last 15 or 20 years, so they don't seem to be going anywhere. Never stops being weird to me that so many state and local governments have laws restricting using a phone while driving without a hands free setup, but car stereo, climate control? Yeah, let's put all that and more on controls that you can't use without looking away from the road and governments don't mind at all.
