Charging extra for safety features is nothing new, but actively disabling them for missed payments may be the future.

I've seen those and thought that it would suck if you forgot to charge the battery, or it died, or if you forgot to renew the subscription! I guess it's like insurance, make sure it's paid!

Or, with many of the electronic models, let it get wet. I can't even remember to turn off my blinker, that's why I choose tethered. Simple.

I'd think that the electronics would be sealed up against water.

What vest are you using?

I have the Motoairbag MAB v3 - Italian (not available in the U.S.- must order internationally).

Better of getting the Icon under coat vest. It’s around 600 vs 400 for the Klim but there is no subscription needed. You buy it and it works. It’s otherwise a very similar product.

As regards the Klim vest, would you really want to pay that much money and then leave your safety in the hands of an App or in the control of a computer?? i think not!
