From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My 2014 Ford Flex was the same way, except that they didn't contact me.
The car with which I replaced the Flex doesn't have onboard navigation, instead relying on Android Auto. I was pleased about this, thinking at least it wouldn't track where I was going ... Until I opened the app and saw it could still report its location independently. At that point it seems like there might as well at least be an option for onboard navigation.
