No kidding. I remember when I bought my new car in 2011, having Bluetooth was like #3 on my list.
In the end, I bought a great Honda without it. But that was only after I figured out a way to add it aftermarket.
For any car buyer under the age of 50, AA/ACP will be a top item. But we live in a weird world where most of the customers are under 60, but we're broke. So everything is marketed to Boomers, even though they are a minority.

Not because there weren't people who didn't try. But because the United States doesn't have one "government." We have governments. So if an out of control state legislature tries to do something, the FCC fights back. And if Congress gets too crazy, courts will strike it on Tenth Amendment grounds.
In the end, people are going to find a way to record cops. So we will. And -- despite internet pessimism -- most of the people in our governments will actually back us on it.
Not coalesce. But could there be a way communites could create federated communities?
You have to order the baby to ask the baby.
