  Now I’m just curious what data they’re collecting and how. Like are they seeing if I’m getting down in the back seat or getting road head on the highway, or are they pulling this info off a connected phone?

    Their lawyers made them put that in as an “avoid a lawsuit” catch-all after other companies have been sued for violating biometric privacy laws.

      Aren’t they already violating biometric privacy laws by unnecessary permissions? At least GDPR says company should not ask for things that are unnecessary for providing service.

      well that doesn’t really answer the question “what is information on sexual activity and how would fucking car has it”… unless there is some indoor camera whose videos nissan secretly uploads.
