    Agreed. The letter of the law vs the spirt of the law. So legal but not right

    People shouldn’t have to not use or rip out their infotainment systems to have privacy. The automakers know that people are just going to take the path of least resistance and know that people aren’t going to read the fine print

      I know for Android you can turn off text messages access for individual Bluetooth devices. That does provide a way to use it with the only lost feature being receiving and replying to text messages while you’re driving.
