Is it user hostile to prevent the user from killing someone? I've seen a kid sentenced to jail for DUI driving and killing people. I doubt the car was acting in his best interest when it let him do that.
How about driving without a license, or past curfew?
Any action contrary to the user's wishes is user hostile. You are welcome to give inanimate objects (and those who control them) power over you, but don't drag the rest of us into your utopia of begging our cars and appliances for permission.
Ah but I'm committing the slippery slope fallacy. I'm sure that unlike all the other surveillance state creep, this particular genie, once out of the bottle, won't spread.
If you need a poorly defined buzzword like "user hostile" to make your objection sound more convincing, maybe it wasn't so great.
I just looked up the definition of user hostile and it doesn't seem to matcb your usage, either.
yes
