MODERATORS
By design.
I have issue if they:
Collect unnecessary data if just used to read out messages, relay calls, or navigate
Store it in their cloud service (i.e. not local on the car)
Share it or sell it with other third parties
Cannot delete the data collected
Clearly states in article owners can't delete data collected
They will say they won't but there's nothing stopping them. Isn't that the actual problem?
Yes, the problem is that there are no laws to stop them and now it was just officially made legal.
