Cars are getting an 'F' in data privacy. Most major manufacturers admit they may be selling your personal information, a new study finds, with half also saying they would share it with the government or law enforcement without a court order.
I post this a second time because this post is more active. What can we do to stop the transfer of data? Can we disconnect the antenna/modem that connects the cars to the Internet?
You can take public transportation. Oh wait, that requires governments to actually supply cities with useful and we’ll organized public transportation and since you’re probably in the US (the only country left that still uses the useless “miles” metric) and the US government has been bought up by (amongst others)car companies, there isn’t any meaningful pyblxi transportation left.

Get something made before 2017.

I can assure you that miles are quite useful for determining distance, I do it nearly every day. Other than that you’re spot on.
So are banana’s but we don’t use those either
How ironic. I guess you haven’t been on Reddit in the past decade.
13 years Redditor, on average 2 posts and 20 comments per day. I was a power user there until the purge
So maybe you were joking and I didn’t catch it?
That would’ve been possible when consumers had a choice but now it’s too late.
