If we weren’t de facto forced into owning and using a car due to our car centric city planning, maybe you’d have a point.
But as it stands bike infrastructure is non existent in most cities, public transportation is a joke, there is no mixed use zoning, etc.
Eventually they’ll just shut down the APIs that allow that to happen just like reddit did. There will still be workarounds to that, but it will make things harder.
The thing I worry about is if they go so far as to ban people’s google accounts for violating the TOS like this. I’m sure they can find out exactly who is doing it through an IP lookup even if you are using a front-end client.
It’s best to migrate everything off google accounts now before that happens. Google has too much power.
