Ep.21 | Is your car spying on you and selling your data? Probably. (Guest: Andrea Amico)
Modern cars are computers on wheels.
They track your acceleration, braking, driving habits, location, commonly-used apps, text messages, phone calls, conversations, etc. Some manufacturers say they may keep tabs on your sex life... wait, what?!
To make matters worse, several manufacturers have been caught selling this data to data brokers or insurance companies (that have changed people's rates based on driving data).
So, should you buy a new car? If you have a new car, how can you opt out of all this?
To discuss all this, we have Andrea Amico, founder of Privacy4Cars
