I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car

In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?
It's not like older vehicles came with those features enabled by default. On my 15 year old pickup you can't have any of that even if you paid for it. I think this is not quite the same as other brands that are locking you out of features like heated seats.
How is it different?
They programmed all the features. The technical systems are the same and all that is required for an unlock is them flipping a digital button. There is no real cost on their side to provide these features to non subscription customers too.
Who is paying for the internet connection to the car for non subscribers?
Whatever brand company the car is. They like to sell / use your data, conversations, location history, if you had sex in your car, etc.
So there is a cost to them.
Enjoy your double dipping car manufacturers!
