Financial risk too great for dev working "in my spare time to help others."

Mazda is angry a customer used an API in a manner they couldn’t control. You can read the DMCA takedown notice here.

I already thought Mazda sucked and made shit products, so it’s nice that they confirmed it’s not just their products that are mediocre at best, it’s their whole business.

Edit: Turns out my long standing perception of Mazda is woefully incorrect. I could have sworn they had a string of bad reliability issues in the early 2000’s and 2010’s but it turns out that’s just plain wrong. Couldn’t tell you what I was thinking of. Leaving the OG comment to laugh at my mistake.

They can still eat a bag of dicks though for this DMCA abuse though.

Tried to search up what I could have sworn was bad quality control problems. Turns out I don’t know what the hell I was thinking.

I appreciate your response. With the amount of negativity, doomers and tankies in the fediverse i have started to get suspicious about people.

I have a Mazda6 estate 2.2 diesel and pretty happy with it. Compared to other cars in the same class it’s no worse regarding reliability as far as I could research
