Nobody cares that their ISP knows what kind of porn they look at or that their bank knows when, where, and what they buy with a card transaction (does your husband/wife know about that?). Or that their cell phone and smart TV listen in on conversations or that Alexa is basically a little snitch too, but they let her in the house. Or that apps on their phone are looking at their pictures and tracking their every movement....
But yea, let's have eleventy thousand threads raging about OnStar.

I have a good driving record. I drive responsibly. I haven’t had a speeding ticket since 2003.
GM still has no right to track every movement of my car and sell it -or even give it - to anyone.
