Is the satellite function free to use? I haven’t read into it and it’s super convenient for its use cases but also seems like it would cost a lot to maintain contracts and backend for the feature.
Imagine if they started displaying ads based on data collected from your car.
GPS route is 2hrs long and late in the afternoon? Here’s restaurants on the way.
Travelling on Valentine’s Day? Here’s gift shops near you.
Don’t forget you’re due for a service! Here’s a nearby authorised service centre and while you’re there; it doesn’t look like you’ve used your window wipers for a while, might be worth asking them to check before rainy season gets here!

It was interesting to see a jarring divide between similar communities on identical topics. I used to follow /r/Australia and /r/auspol (I think that’s what it was called) and the same news could be posted in both subs with a huge variation on answers. I used it as a way to experience different viewpoints but someone whose only exposure is to one of those subs would only see one type of viewpoint regularly.
