It's a basic convenience/status in exchange for money.
You wanna control your house from your phone? Sure, pay me for the effort of keeping all that shit secure.
I like convenience, that's why i eat out 6 days a week.
Oh you were seriously asking? It allows me to unlock the car from my couch when my wife wants to get something out the car real quick. Or i don't wanna carry my keys around.
I can also start the A/C 30 minutes before i leave so i dont have to freeze to death in winter.
Because the question was answered in my original question. You don't. That's why it's an additional subscription feature.
My question was why the guy claimed it was a basic feature when it never was.
And then you came along and asked "well hurr durr why do i need to unlock my car from my phone"
You don't. So you don't need the subscription. Done.
LMAO you want to switch your Battery yourself? And pay for it directly? And if something goes wrong pay even more? Firgure out what shop has fair prices and doesnt fuck you over?
No thanks, i'd rather have all my services included in my lease.
No the cost of the Servers and the maintenance and the work required to have all that kept online and secure is.
Do you think admins and security guys work for free?
You want to selfhost your own server that communicates with your car so you can ulock your car from your phone? Are you dumb? Do you want to lose your car in a week?
Delusional.
It doesn't have to be the car i drive. Cars have enormous loss of value. I'd rather have a new car every 3 of 5 Years and pay rent on it, than to have a car that i pay the same amount of money but i can trash it 10 years later or spend as much as a new car to keep it pristine.
I'm talking about how DDG is just Bing-ish.
