News community around technology, social media platforms, information technology and governmental policy surrounding it.
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.
1. English only
Title and associated content has to be in English.
2. Use original link
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
3. Respectful communication
All communication has to be respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
4. Inclusivity
Everyone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
5. Ad hominem attacks
Any kind of personal attacks are expressly forbidden. If you can't argue your position without attacking a person's character, you already lost the argument.

Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular connectivity and some satellite communications technologies are covered under the rules based on national security concerns linked to the ability of vehicles to collect sensitive data on American owners.
So... Could they please just release a version without any of this connectivity, and then I could buy a cheap EV that isn't a privacy nightmare. Sounds like a win-win to me.
They love the data collection; they just want it all for themselves.
Oh no for sure every government does.
But I mean specifically here they could remove connectivity as a way around the ban by removing the rationale for it. I'm sure the government would find another reason to ban them, but still
Polestar doesn't do cheap EVs. Their cars are far too powerful and sophisticated for this. You can't exactly take out features that customers in this segment are expecting.
Look into the upcoming Slate truck, which is set to be one of the cheapest EVs in the US. It doesn't even come with an infotainment system by default - just a holder for your smartphone. If you want, you can access advanced vehicle functions via an app, but you don't have to.
Yep slate is looking pretty interesting
US cranks up pressure on ~~China EVs~~ fleeced carbrains with Polestar ban
Exactly, so much cope in that headline.
