If we had a congress that didnt have their heads up the aholes of corporaations they would pass laws against this

Sounds like those in Congress should hear these videos. Especially those who side with big car manufacturers. Oops, the Representatives that are not listening to us Are Being Spied on.

Not in either of my cars it doesn't! Lol.

Just don't buy a piece of crap. No vehicle I own is newer than 1974.

Is this video still true in 2024?

It is sad that companies treat your personal data as an asset. A company should treat it's customers data as a liability. There should be huge lawsuits when there is a leak to make personal data holding a liability.

This has been discussed several times with regard to cars in the USA but it is not clear to me how this applies to the legal framework in Europe. Do they sell cars with different data harvesting items switched on or off in different countries, or do they collect it everywhere but throw it away in some countries, or do they simply feel that things like GDPR has no impact on data collected by cars in Europe?

let me put it to you this way, you don't need peoples permission to "pass on" information to emergency services, it should be common knowledge and expected without informed consent, you can't dial 911 and then say to the operator "I don't wish for this call to be recorded", the most polite response would be "not an option" "I don't want to be identified" pfft, why call for help? "my location is none of your business" XD Emergency dispatcher... it's in their job description, when I call emergency I give up all forms of privacy for a valid reason. BUT... between you and the manufacturer, there is no real reason to give out your personal information other than for the services that you are paying them for, these days cars need to not only be harder to steal but act like toxic sludge for anyone other than those authorised to be using it, you don't want to be stealing cars - it's not only wrong but these days it's like a homing beacon. Yes, these value added services can make things easier like OnStar, the kick backs from those services would keep the company afloat for years to come, however they shouldn't chop the car into bits unless you pay for those "premium services" I like my radio, I like the ability to use apps with my car.

Thankfully, in my 2016 Subaru, the engineers had the foresight to connect the car via the 3G network. Once the 3G networks were obsolete and turned off, it just sits there trying to connect forever, which has the fantastic side effect of draining the battery. When I go to the airport, I always have a 10mm wrench in the glovebox to disconnect the battery with. I replaced the head unit with an aftermarket one, but it still uses Android Auto. Hmmm.... Our legislators in The States are useless with anything technological, so hopefully the Europeans will come up with some serious laws against this kind of crime. With AI, your data is the source code, so the big tech overlords are as greedy as ever for your data.

Stop buying products that own you. Have some self respect and tell companies that ask for too much “NO”. You’re not obligated to go along with the herd.

Stop buying "the latest thing"

Simple. Drive an older car.

Is turning yr. phone off a solution to tracking?

How to disable everything?

The Patriot Act was passed just a month after the attacks of 9/11/2001. There's NO WAY anyone could have written it in that time, it was already in their hands waiting for just such and event to occur so they could shove it down our throats. That's why, despite many warnings, the attacks of 9/11 went off without any hinderance from the GOP. Know your enemies!

The monitoring is only going to get worse. Congress has mandated that cars in a few yrs. will have alcohol detectors that immobilize yr. vehicle if alcohol is detected, or you appear impaired in any way. Was going to sell my 2003 Chevy truck for a much newer vehicle, but now having second thoughts.

It starts at the d.m.v. they benn selling your information for year to the insurance companies.

You're doing great work! I've longed for a channel like this

Does using the Faraday bag annul all the other measures before that? Does the Faraday block all these connections mentioned here without having to do it manually one by one?

@ 14:02 What is a VOIT number? Does it not require a connection of some sort?

It's despicable that you PAY for the car and then the company uses YOUR PURCHASE to rake money off you by selling bits of your life.

Wait until the insurance companies start charging by the mile! Please someone make a computer that can remove the WiFi.

New cars have integrated eSIMs now, you cannot remove them

Privacy is a myth!!!!

You really believe all this, the only way to stop tracking is to have a removable battery

Best and most useful tool? Buy an older car that isn’t a rolling violation of the 4th amendment. Avoid apps that track your location, and especially those used by auto insurance companies. Even after all that, your phone can listen to you, and log your speed and g forces, but at least you’ve eliminated most of the culprits

‘Privacy’ , it’s ‘Privacy’ NOT ‘Pryvacy’! Also it is ‘Dayta’ not ‘Darta’ 🥴

Google Maps for sure is spying on us, that data has got to be going to insurance companies.

Yeah THIS is why I drive a pre-smartphone era minivan. Not because I don't have any money.

You cant shutoff the uplinks to the mothership. If the car cant talk to the overlord, it will timeout and shutoff/limp mode after the set time limit.

And when the nag-ware notices when you start the car doesn't deter consumers from removing the SIM, the designers will put up more blocks to disabling it, such as adding a non-removable (backup) eSIM. And when people figure out how to block those too, the designers will prevent the car from starting in the first place. This will NEVER stop until there is equivalent to legislation to credit data reporting laws. There will be many lobbyists using false equivalency and straw man arguments that collecting this data saves lives. But this kind of privacy protection MUST be passed. Yes, laws like that will absolutely destroy the current firehose data market. I'm fine with that.

Thank you so.much for your help and onformation. I was on facebook a few days ago and followed a lead which turned out to be a game, snd my facebook progile picture actually alleared on the screen!

If you remove your car's SIM card, is there any possible way someone could hack your car and steal data or control it remotely?

This country is being taken over, our rights? In the toilet! All they have to do is flush. Say no to this garbage!

Why aren't information commissioners issuing fines to car manufacturers who are breaking a number of privacy acts globally?

Can it be disabled ?

Need to hear downsides of decentralized status quo. For Sia I read a setup page a year ago with a doctorate level explanation on how Sia has gotten worse over time. All providers remunerate in crypto first,then fiat; all corporations with decentralized offerings still hold some degree of control over the nodes. And from me personally, the consumer prices seem higher than for standard storage. A combo, self stored + any remote storage, works better. Hopefully a well rounded solution will appear.

My car doesn't have a sim and I'm keeping it. Done 170,000 miles now and still running well.

Great video, well done. A lot of people are not aware of this. Have you read your car's licence agreement? You should. BMW will now rent you features such as heated seats on a monthly basis. They build one fully equipped model giving them economies of scale and then the consumer can chose if they want to turn it on or not. Please, stop saying data. I normally just ignore how people say it but you say it so many times, it really grates like chalk on a blackboard. ua-cam.com/video/WssBJeExiOM/v-deo.html

Simple solution? Don't buy a car newer than 2010.

Everyday I find a new reason to switch to Linux

Not Tesla

The real problem is.. if I remove my sim card.. my car stops receiving updates and they fix recalls sometimes with that. We need consumer protections updated to fix this. If they cant legally harvest my phone data off my phone... then they shouldn't be allowed to do this

Specifically how does the info get transmitted ,gps yes, but besides that , antenna on car or is there another antenna Or what?

I added an aftermarket radio to a 2019 Chevy express and there was no reason to have the data anymore. It had error codes when the sim was removed. I ended up cutting the wire to the mic and unplugging the gps and satellite antennas. Then added a dummy antenna so it didn’t know it was unplugged. Lots of work to not have big brother

good

what if you apie for outlook?

I drive a 2004 Mazda Miata (in summer). I doubt it has all this electronic crap in it. My other vehicle is a 2017 Toyota truck which still seems relatively low(er) tech. This whole thing pisses me off.

I feel sad for people that own electric cars. If they remove the SIM cards from all the devices within the car, it will probably void their warranty or even make the car inoperable.
