Totally agree. I don’t have to register to buy petrol, why should I to refill my car’s battery?

In NZ they have a government list of every fast charge station.

Probably wouldn’t be too much more effort to add chargers status to it. Or even an API that others can develop apps against (like what we do in Australia for fuel pricing).
