Look, I'm not a fucking broker or a hustler, okay? I don't care that you keep running around telling me or others to go waste our time and money to put into markets that can be incredibly unpredictable. It is all about luck, chance and risk. Things most wouldn't want to put themselves on the line over even if they were down next to nothing. They'd rather buy lottery tickets.

electric cars.

I know that there's one benefit that they do help with the carbon footprint, but factories (law-exempted for some reason), personal jets, yachts and cruise ships make me feel this personal contribution is moot.

there's also the fact that most electric cars are shipped with privacy invasive data collectors most of use didn't ask nor pay for.

Electric cars don't have more data collection than other modern cars. They all collect your data, regardless of the energy source.

This needs to be regulated.
