    Aren’t those two separate issues?

      Sadly, they’re not. Every single EV is a privacy nightmare.

      I’d love a dumb EV, but there is none.

        Retrofitting classic cars is a thing. Have you looked into that? I agree it seems you are letting a different problem lock you into inaction.

        Every single car in the last five years is a privacy nightmare, not just EVs. My next car will likely be an economical ICE not because it’s ICE, but because it’ll be old enough to not be a privacy nightmare.
