This thread is about GM forcibly bundling OnStar into a bunch of their cars. Removing the antenna does nothing to prevent that.

Whether you activate the subscription or not, you're still paying $1500 for it.

Their story doesn't really apply here. Fair enough.

My issue is more with 4chan greentext being a low form of communication.

Almost anything is better than it, like "Well, you'd still be paying the subscription." Even direct snark feels higher level than greentext-style rephrasing.
