Whooo ooooh no.

Hotel California. I refuse to elaborate further.

Well obviously not… Because the nose wheel fell off.

I say there are some fair applications of SaaS. If you use a product that requires servers to be running, paying a recurring cost for however long you need the software is fair.

That being said, mandatory SaaS on a physical product with upfront cost is decidedly shitty. Especially when it’s a 50k car.
