Of course stalkers, wife beaters and other nefarious characters will obey. This is like expecting criminals not to use guns. 

Another point is people will be bamboozled into buying a car with Ultifi (sad attempt to ride on the coattails of Unifi) by a salesmen implying it is better than CarPlay with all of the same functionality and it will work perfectly. Worse will be the salesman who does not even know what CarPlay is or misleads the buyer into thinking it is CarPlay. I am referring to regular users of the iPhone who have no interest other than it working. 

Darin Gesse is straight up out of his mind, but that is ok for me as I would never buy a GM or any American car (nor a Mercedes). Trying to justify this by saying only hard-core Apple users will be affected is absurd, but one can dream and justify their existence as a company. 

To a degree I feel sorry for them they have decided to pigeon hole themselves into something that has no chance of working. Check with Toyota and other late adopters how well that went for them. Additionally people know the interface as it is in nearly every car made. It is as if they want to sell fewer cars.

The EU is terrible.

They regulate everything out to oblivion. 

Really bad =/

They have to because they are a zero in the tech world and this is the way a child would level the playing field. Best is irrelevant when someone is pushing mediocre. I really wish Apple would give away Apple Music until Spotify is pummeled into oblivion. They may have follow some rules in the EU, but giving something is not outlawed yet.

MAME is where it is at!
