IMO they don’t want people to see how much data they’re collecting. How does reading telemetry style data jeopardize the vehicle?

It's not only Tesla, there are of course several big players lobbying against it. In the most disgusting way.
There are ads running in Massachusetts that tell you if Question 1 passes, everyone can access your data and you will get stalked and raped [0].

I was explaining Question 1 to my girlfriend the other day, by way of showing her why it's a more important vote for me than the Presidential race (Massachusetts is going to Biden anyway).
Seriously fuck Tesla. Thanks to them we have other car makers pushing against right to repair as well.
Because of the current right to repair in Massachusetts (I think the only state) they have to provide the service manual. However, they make you pay $100 per day and it's online only with all kinds of measures to prevent you from downloading it.
Any other car's service manual can be picked up in the store for a reasonable price.
If you no longer own a car they should not be allowed to sell it to you. Make it lease only and if it breaks, they need to deal with it, like a cable box.
