After the failure of pretty much all embedded automobile platforms like microsoft sync that people really don't want yet another crappy middleware platform, the automotive industry is trying this shit again removing android auto and apple carplay after people actually got what they want.

Why? Auto vendors realized they lost control through their ineptitude of the user interface, and want it back. Problem is no one wants what they have to offer, that is a sub-par experience in every way to simply letting them use their phone as a screen in their car already there.

Automobile vendors realized they screwed up and lost real estate while they were still screwing with Microsoft, Clarion, all the other WinCE vendors and few others longer than they should, and are simply going to piss everyone off trying to take it back again.
