Free Market DEAD: Modern Vehicles Spy On Drivers, Send Data To Insurance Companies & Police

In the brief video below, you will see that newer cars are equipped with sophisticated data collection systems that track your driving, speed, facial expressions, aggressiveness, even "sexual activity" in the car. It's all forwarded to data brokers!

In one case, a guy was driving his 1 year old Toyota when it went on fire. Toyota refused Warranty work, telling him that "at some point in your ownership, you drove over 85 MPH." That had nothing at all to do with the car fire, but they refused to honor the warranty nonetheless.

A guy who owns a Corvette, took it to a closed race track to see what the car could do, and do so legally on a closed track. The computer logged all the speed and sharp turns, and his Insurance skyrocketed.

The video is self explanatory: https://htrs-special.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/New-Cars-Collect-Data-Send-to-Ins-co-and-police.mp4

The "rub" is that YOU CONSENT to this when you install their "App" on your phone. Continuous spying, and relaying of data to third parties, which includes Insurance companies and even Law Enforcement.

Car companies are doing this because they make millions selling driver data to data brokers and government regulations MANDATE this spyware shit in all modern vehicles.

HT REMARK: I declined to activate the GMC App in my Diesel pick-up truck in 2021 when I got it, because I read the "Terms of Service" and didn't want this being done to me. I also declined to install the KIA App for my new K-5 when I got it a few months ago in August. Both GM and KIA are among the most notorious for data collection.

MY COMMENT: I refuse to buy anything past the year 2016!!! I am most definitely holding on to my older trucks too! Looks like this country is headed towards disaster! New Unstable vehicles now becoming a FISCAL LIABILITY for users to drive! New vehicles illegally spying on drives, total violation of the US Constitution! The free market and consumer choice is clearly DEAD in the USSA. This is exactly what a failed totalitarian state looks like!!!

This makes me so pissed I thought of another solution to Hal's opt-out! I would recommend you put any "smartphone" in a Faraday bag when using these modern shitware spymobiles as well! Don't even allow the WiFi chips to detect any smartphone network in the first place!! You can legally buy Faraday cage bags for laptops and numerous other devices online, there are companies that even sell them for credit cards and wallets! Looks like this is a MUST INVESTMENT as we devolve into an unfriendly anti-consumer nanny police state!!

A faraday bag is a good start, but it isn't enough for most smartphones, Because they can just record the audio and upload it later without your knowledge or consent, you need to physically disable the device's microphones and speakers (because it is possible to use them as microphones) and/or soundproof the phone when not in use.

Here's a fairly inexpensive DIY solution. Be sure to test it as most smartphones have fairly sensitive microphones and the insulation in tube linked below may not be sufficient. Also bear in mind that "white noise" is not enough as it can be filtered out in post-processing on another device, and your device may already have a "noise cancelling" feature that does this post-processing.

Best "portable" solution would probably be to put the phone in a faraday bag, then put it in the insulated tube in the above link. Maybe someone has improved on the design since the article was posted. I discovered it on lain's /sec/ board, fairly decent resource for people who wish to counter state paranoia.

Dude, I have ALL my music collection backed up OFFLINE on lossless formats and don't rely on any phone to listen to it LOL.

Linux build with Foobar2000, THE BEST lightweight audio player in the world, can load and play large music collections (with plenty of options like creating playlists, random shuffle, built-in search engine, options for queuing your favorite tunes, etc.

Mind you, no one controls this laptop but me, 2TB built-in solid state drive, loaded with everything I need all offline no wifi card no bluetooth chip no internet. Hooked up to a mixer and amplifier that feeds into a surround sound Boss speaker system.

LOL at relying on third party corporate CRAP.
