Key takeaways:
From July 7, new EU cars must include driver-facing cameras to detect distraction and issue alerts.

Won’t end up in the wrong hands when they are the wrong hands
This is the real reason for the data centers
Guys this has to got to stop. When are we going to do something? This is unacceptable, we need to put an end to this.

That means no car newer than 2026 for me.

Sorry, but there is no way I could focus on driving whilst that was in my face…absolutely ridiculous!
Is there anywhere that hates humanity more than European leadership
