I have something similar for my Subaru but it's only 4 dollars a month.
It's a fee I gladly pay to be able to start my car and set the interior climate from my phone. I imagine there's some cost the access a network to have that functionality and I don't see a problem paying for it.
The old style that started from a key fob required you to be a lot closer to the vehicle to start it. Right now I start it a few minutes before I leave my building a quarter of a mile away. I could start it from a different country if I wanted to. Needing to be within a few hundred feet would be pretty useless to me.
Yea... You are part of the damn problem
Are they? These services do require money to run, and the pricing seems very reasonable
Yea, maybe like 4 cents a month lol it's nowhere near 4 dollars a month to handle a hundred lightweight API calls
