Just curious - why would you want to disable the radio and onstar? Is that how the feds can track you?

I'm of the mindset that car hacking will become a thing outside of white-hat good guy hacks like we saw with Jeep late last year. I dont trust that Chevy is any more secure than Jeep was and since I have a cell phone with me at all times, I dont need my car to be directly connected to any external network. So there is that and there is the lack of transparency in what is talking to what. So for those reasons I'll be disabling onStar completely.

The cancelling of XM is just because I dont listen to the radio and never plan to. My music will come from a thumb drive like god intended.
