Well I don't want every single company in the world to have access to every bit of info.

And I don't own a house and there aren't enough chargers around.

I work two jobs/minimum 90 hours a week already, I don't have the time or inclination to waste what little free time I do have sitting 30 minutes from home in my car waiting for it to charge for an hour

What Biden push? The one where he slaps 100% tariffs on the cheapest EVs in the world so that American companies can continue charging an exorbitant premium for EVs? Sorry, the tax credit which the car companies have jacked prices up far beyond isn't enough in this scenario.

You are skeptical about EVs because you’re afraid of change.

I am skeptical about EVs because modern cars, regardless of propulsion type, are pervasively networked and festooned with sensors, and generally have live connections to servers somewhere, sending who knows what to who knows where (because it’s all proprietary, and can’t be easily explored outside of reverse engineering).

We are not the same.
