Are these compatible with ICE vehicles?

Use LoRa instead of sim cards so they can't tell who bought it though

If one lives in an area with tons of LoRa enthusiasts, this might work exceptionally perfect.

LoRa (from "long range", sometimes abbreviated as "LR") is a physical proprietary radio communication technique.[2] It is based on spread spectrum modulation techniques derived from chirp spread spectrum (CSS) technology.[3] It was developed by Cycleo, a company of Grenoble, France, and patented in 2014.[4] In March 2012, Cycleo was acquired by the US company Semtech.[5]

From Wikipedia. I was confuse.
