You'd think more libertarian types would be more in favor of walkable cities, biking, and such.

Drivers in tatters.

I'll just walk outside where there's no surveillance.

[–] Glytch@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Where is there no surveillance outside? With all the doorbell cameras nowadays, every neighborhood is under surveillance

I am driving my 2018 car which doesn’t even have auto stop start until it dies.

So... ICE will know both your location and face every time you get in your car? Yeah, I'm sure this won't result in a genocide. ^/s^

Is this just in America? Or worldwide?

This is fucked. But aren't "passenger vehicles" actually quite rare? I think most (environmental and safety) regulation is on passenger vehicles, which is why auto manufacturers try and sell so many trucks and SUVs since they don't count as "passenger vehicles". I could be wrong and this mandate is going to target all consumer vehicles.

Fuck all cars and our American car brained culture. But also fuck this legislation.

You are wrong. The move to SUVs and trucks is because the the larger a vehicle is, the more lenient the regulations are. That's why the current Ranger is larger than a 90s F150.

Bought a 2000 Honda Civic precisely because I don't want to be spied upon.

Spank my ass cause everything else already does, so it makes my effort almost completely moot.
