Like the modder scene cares about warranties.

maybe not but that's the very small minority of car owners... plus you seem to be seriously underestimating software locks

Don't support the people trying to control everything with this "void your warranty" nonsense. People say this about phones too, it's just a scare tactic.

it's absolutely not a scare tactic. I am completely against this garbage trend but pretending we can all risk the warranty on a 60k purchase like car racers do is ridiculous

You, and only YOU, should own what you buy.
