If you don't practice what you preach, your words are shallow in my opinion, and you shouldn't expect anyone to take you seriously. And can we stop pretending like a "nice new electric vehicle" is a must? It's as pragmatic as having a Ring doorbell camera (at least from the perspective of a less technically inclined person), but yet these very same channels won't spare such "big-tech" products (which Tesla wouldn't classify as of course...). Ring cameras are technically (but not practically) restricted to private property, rather than a 360 degree camera roaming public streets; but yet you actively scrutinize the first, while remaining suspiciously quiet about the latter. Please come again, at how that is not peak hypocrisy.
