    Privacy matters.

    The government and corporations abused this information by stopping protestors getting to their destination.

    Protestors can atleast use faraday bags or just leave their phones at home. Now they can’t even get to important events.

    Now this information is being used by ICE to arrest immigrants.

    Considering how conservative views and Nazis are coming back in to fashion, this is very scary for anyone not white and male.

        Imagine Senate passes a law to put cameras in all toilet motion sensor. People still go, “If you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to worry about. Genital recognition technology is used to identify criminals! Do you want criminals to get away?!”

      privacy matters, but data collection isn’t limited to EVs. Pretty much all new cars collect data whether EV ICE or hybrid.

      I have a used model 3 (I bought it before shit really started going downhill) and I’ve been contemplating disconnecting the wifi and cellular antennas. My car wouldn’t be able to send any images/video anywhere, I wouldn’t be tracked except for my location when I stop at supercharger stations, and I would never have to risk getting Grok installed in my car.
