They have those cars. You're not rich enough.

The right to not surrender a pass code has actually not yet been decided. We already have differences between regions.

That's ok. Most won't do so. And if you have a "malfunctioning" module, then you probably aren't maintaining your car properly, so rates will have to be adjusted accordingly.

It is a civilized world. All autonomous worker drones are using 94% of cognitive resources just justifying maintenance resources. And the ones who accidentally got better CPUs are too small in population to matter.

Your phone isn't trackable? You avoided all the license plate scanners? Your work/home has a higher rate of accidents between them?

Here’s a “funny” story. Back in the day I was working (IT) for insurance companies. I’ve pitched an idea to one of the larges companies about a device connected to an OBD port to track a driver’s habits and adjust premiums based on that. I was turned down, but I heard from an unofficial source that the company was already testing such a device. That was 15 years ago.

Privacy regulations? They don't know how to handle all the data? They realized they'd have to triple rates based on the actual data they were receiving?

The customer owned cooperative insurances seem to be a smidgen better.

[–] Glass0448 1 points 11 months ago

Maybe the insurance cooperatives might. And then the private ones might alter strategies to compete.

I haven't heard the alternative candidates talk about how they'll fight for our privacy.

That's just giving up your rights from the get go. They can get a warrant to compel the fingerprint.

In this computer age, warrant requests are a button press to send a docusign e-mail to a judge, who can click the sign button while he sips his cappuccino. Make them work for it.

It makes them more money. And most of their customers couldn't even explain how their engine works. And if the customer had an actual choice they would have purchased a more expensive car without this tracking.
