Find me a new car in 2024 that doesnt store every GPS coordinate you've driven at for eternity. Genuinely, I'd like to see the non-garbage option because my '04 is getting old.

If I buy a new car, I'm going to have to figure out how to lobotomise it. At the very least, you should be able to mess up or cage any transmitters.

I have no idea if that's possible without taking the whole thing apart, though.

As far as I am aware, most of them aren't directly transmitting data back to the manufacturer, but the data is stored on the car so if you ever have it worked on the dealership can just pull that shit without consent. I could be wrong though, maybe there are cars now that are doing that. I do know that a a lot of cars are taking the iPhone route of having "encrypted" parts, where if one is missing or replaced, the car just won't work.
