I recently saw a news report about a Quebec car owner who had sold his vehicle, which ended up in the United States. The reporter went to see the original owner of the vehicle, as well as the new owner. From an application on his phone, the original owner was able to lock, unlock and start the vehicle, which was located far away in the United States.
That kind of a situation is why I decided to keep my old car. Given what these technologies do, shouldn't the information generated by the purchased asset also belong to the owner?
Witnesses have told us about the aftermarket parts industry, local garages and mechanics. Since my car is no longer under warranty, I can go to the local garage. Those witnesses are concerned that this industry will disappear.
Do you share that view?
