Comment on ‘Modern cars are a privacy nightmare,’ the worst Mozilla’s seen

Tesla was the worst-ranked brand in the study, getting flagged in every privacy category — only the second time this happened. Tesla’s AI-powered autopilot was highlighted as “untrustworthy” following its involvement in numerous crashes and fatalities.
Yeah, that does sound untrustworthy.

Huh?! If I look at the source of the article at Mozilla, Tesla is actually ranked as almost least creepy.
So I do not understand where this is coming from. Also the picture of the article only showing teslas is highly suggestive

It looks to be based on user ratings (for the sort), and could change dynamically
Likely a lot of people dog piled on Tesla, then read the others.
The Tesla one’s main issue is “they grab a lot of data and don’t seem competent protecting it” which is less bad than “we will sell your sexual history if we can grab it from the car, and have a lot of sensors too”
