i cant wait for the future.

they'll remotely turn off your car because you haven't consumed your daily dosage of government ordered propaganda this morning or because you didn't pay your 10 dollar seatbelt ticket.

when you go to buy a car, you will have to upgrade to the XS luxury package in order to not be forced to watch a 30 sec ad before turning on the car

while you are driving, you will served targeted ads on billboards but if you look at the ad, the insurance company's tracking device's integrated eye tracker sensor will increase your monthly payment for not paying attention to the road.
