None of this is specific to EVs, or somehow more necessary in EVs.

Sure it is happening to all vehicles, however with an ICE vehicle I have the option to buy an older pre Internet connect vehicle.

EVs really only became a thing 10ish years ago. There just isn't a lot of them around to pick from, basically all have some anti privacy features.
