Comment on Carmakers are failing the privacy test. Owners have little or no control over data collected

I just don’t want people to have a false sense of security just because their cars are older.

In my case I’m pretty sure it’s a safe car in that respect. No remote communication module in the car and the dealer has no access to the software as well. I do my own maintenance and have been doing it for 5 years. The only camera that’s in it is the dashcam I fitted. No drivers assist that requires camera’s, no adaptive cruise control, not even a reverse camera for parking, just sensors. I’ve got no clue how it is with the next generation though.
Weirdest thing on this point is that my employer doesn’t want camera’s on the terrain around the buildings, but loads of contractors with Teslas can just park where they want…
