I think the headline is framing this wrong. Apple is not threatening to kill these services.

Apple is refusing to break their services just to accommodate broken, stupid laws written by a broken, stupid parliament.

Ironically, you cannot find out if your car is affected unless you’re willing to share your VIN with the helpful folks at privacy4cars.com

So, since I don’t own a model specifically listed in the story and I value my privacy …

Edit: I was wrong, they would much rather I download their helpful app and use that software they’re implanting on my PHONE to help me re-assert my right to privacy 🤡

How do I make a link in this crazy thing?

It seems comments and posts behave differently. Or maybe it’s because I’m on mobile?

Update:

Thanks to everyone who reached out, fediDB.org and fediverse.info will remain online going forward.

I’m not going anywhere either, though I think I need a break from the fediverse for a few days.

Ayup. Or rather, that’s the most recent of it; I don’t have historical background.
