    Appliances and cars should never have an internet connection for any reason.

    Also fuck touch screens give me buttons.

      touch screens can be justified IMO, IF the company let it function as a diagnostic computer but the auto industry seem terrified of actually making something resembling a competent configurable UI. Internet could be nice if the appliance just used SNMP or similar protocols that have been around for decades, but the companies seem to love that shitty malware they call an App.
