This is what happens when you don't give people the choice to ride trains (or other forms of mass transit).
Good thing I like old cars.
edit: typo

I'm not sure of how that's relevant because they would just attach the devices to trains and other public transit anyway. To be fair, that would make it harder for tracking, at least, by a little.

The difference is that public transit surveillance systems would be rolled out immediately, while cars would be a slow realization for all but the most tech aware.
I'd rather have a universal "my tax dollars are being used for what" outrage than a slow-rolling series of complaints from 2027/2028 car buyers (which are statistically going to be less numerous than previous years)
