There are some countries that still support forced bundling.

Default Onstar called the cops on me.

I can't say I am a big fan of on-star, long story but it called the police on me the other day. The Onstar buttons are red, white and blue and don't dim at night, it looks like a cop is behind you. So I used a hold punch with some electrical tape to stick over the buttons. I accidentally pushed the red SOS button, I canceled the call About a hour later my cell phone was ringing with a Texas number, I didn't answer and they didn't leave a message. About 2 hours later 2 Warren County Sheriffs knocked on my door (its about 7:30 at night) No one ever knocks on my door here. I had to show them the car and my license. Its a bad omen when your car (which knows your have been speeding) calls the cops on you...

This isn't going to end well, George. Be rid of it... FAST.
