But the phone's owner could have been a passenger. Seems unrealistic
Good point. I would like to understand it better if the data/info is out there
Hope these will help with opting out for data collection / informing yourself about it:
I didn't know about this opt out code. Pretty nifty. Thanks
Mozilla did a research on it recently. And yes the infotainment system does send data to the insurance company in some countries. Do not use it unless you highly modify it to be privacy-respecting (which is illegal but whatever cuz privacy is more important)
What do you mean its illegal for me to modify my own car's sound system?!?
Absolutely can be. They have a SIM card or an alternative of it. It's registered and tampering with it can lead to stuff up to real jail time (IMEI change)
I didn't realize they update their research. I just thought they produced the one a few months ago that swept the internet. I'll check it out again, thanks.
My question is: which cars have toggle switches built-in, or have a community of hackers that have published guides on how to turn off the car's internet access, microphones, cameras, and other unnecessary sensors...
My friend was talking about this over the weekend. I really hope this is not true.
I hate to admit I saw this on r/conspiracy. Maybe there's a link in there.
Nothing wrong with that. I'll give it a look, thanks
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
