And when the breaking of laws becomes too onerous or attracts too much attention, they simply change the law to make their behavior legal, e.g. NDAA in the USA.

> I am not sure if it makes a difference that Ford wouldn't have the car anymore, they have the marginal cost. Asking for more than the marginal cost seems to be immoral to some.
It does, and the cases are not comparable. Leaving an empty space (plus marginal cost) where the car used to be requires the original owner to expend time and effort to replace it, and they have opportunity cost as well. None of that is true of the digital example. To be a fair comparison you'd have to leave an atom-for-atom identical replacement for the car (or more accurately, take an identical copy and leave the original) and I doubt as many people would judge that unethical.

This is not the case. I've tried and they absolutely will not sign you up unless you have an iOS device, even if you don't intend to use mobile features. Very frustrating, since I too waited a year for an invite.
