Well after we all get our juris doctorates and pass the bar we'll be able to fully understand the terms and conditions this type of shit comes with that no one reads
"connected cars" automatically reporting to insurance companies

This article is regarding built in technology in cars not the OBD dongles or apps that one can get from car insurance companies.
With Google being the operating system on you new (2021+) GM and throw in OnStar, "they" know where you go, when you go, and what you are saying.
If your phone is on, they are listening to you.
4 years ago, I was talking to the wife at a Beer Pub. My phone chimed with an add for the exact product we were talking about.
Ever since, I don't take my phone into any establishment where I am going to have a conversation. If I do take my phone with me, it is off. Even at home I am careful ablout what I say or talk to the wife about with a phone nearby.
I had a conversation with the wife about something, and I made sure both phones were in the house and we were out in the back property just to make sure nothing could be "heard".
Am I paranoid? Yea, probably.
To many "conspiracy theories" have been proven true in the last few years.

I realize that. You're still paying for all of this stuff and you're still forking over your liberties by buying one. There's a reason cars aren't $30k anymore.
I love when i get an add for the exact watch a wear every day...its ****in creepy and yeah that phone knows all and hears all
No wonder my rates have gone up inexplicably

Another reason to hang on to the 96 Bronco...
Thanks for posting..

This is another reason why I have no desire to upgrade my vehicles to newer ones.
Nope! I'd only be surprised if it WASN'T happening!
Not getting rid of mine. Gonna have to outfit as my apocalypse vehicle it appears.
Got a photo of it?
That's exactly right. They push those features out and you have to agree to lengthy terms and conditions in order to begin using the app/feature. Buried in those T&Cs are the permissions to do this crap. Certainly my bad, but I don't read those T&Cs.
Pretty sure you've seen it as Ive posted it in the other threads that you have, but mine is a 95 in the darker green. It looks good but still needs a bit of work.
^^ Looks clean!
Where is your antenna?

Can't wait for people to take these new cars, rip all the crap out and Coyote swap them LMAO!!!!
Missing lol. Radio doesn't work so I have to hook up with an aux cord, but my newest phone doesn't have an aux port anymore so it's just the CD player and I don't know what I did with all my old CDs. It needs a lot of work in pretty much every area, but everything is still there for the most part, minus the antenna.
