Well the gas would be cheaper if they could somehow make it contain advertising and data theft

Oh wait till you find out about how modern cars are mining your data, including facial recognition and reporting of you are having sex in the car! And the best part it’s all unregulated! Govt can simply buy the info for tracking even your Phone would be jealous of!

[–] TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

At least send me the footage for my onlyFans

[–] Hackworth@piefed.ca 19 points 1 week ago

Somebody forgot all previous instructions and dropped those straight facts.

[–] Banana@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Never been happier to have a base model car from 2012

[–] SmackemWittadic@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Never been happier to have a car that can't even be sold in the US because it can't connect to any form of network.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I love it when the government finds out when I have sex. It's so romantic – just me, her, and the CIA.

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It depends, if it out of the country it’s you, her, and the CIA, if it’s inside the US, it’s you, her, and the NSA

[–] Rijunox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Sounds like antispy country song title "it’s you, her, and the CIA"

[–] knexcar@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It’s a party in the CIA

[–] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 week ago

Sounds like something chef would sing.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't know which one I prefer as a cuck tbh

[–] n7gifmdn@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (3 children)

As someone who makes that software that suits this, we can't even figure out how to properly handle the data we actually want, like analytics if you actually use the auto feature on your air conditioner. Nobody actually cares if you have sex in your car. Besides you're on Lemmy we know your aren't having sex.

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Well yea f course I’m not having sex, I’m on my phone at the kitchen table, where do you think I am, my car? (-)(-)

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Sad accuracy noises

[–] asbestos@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Why is it all in the terms of service? Also there have there been numerous data leaks. The sex thing is from a specific manufacturer m’s TOS, but nonetheless

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Where in America do you have gas pumps that don’t have ad TVs or ask you for your zip code?

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Very few of the ones around me have the built in ad players. Several stations blare ads (inevitably largely for themselves, curiously enough) over the PA system constantly, though.

The ZIP code thing is for credit card verification. I ask for that too, when you pay me by credit card. I don't have a choice unless I'd like to enjoy zero fraud and chargeback protection.

[–] toynbee@piefed.social 2 points 6 days ago

The gas station nearest me has screens that show ads, but they're just for that facility and they don't have audio. However, the store does have a PA system constantly playing audio, a combination of music and ads.

My favorite ad is the one that advertises themselves to advertisers. I don't remember the exact wording, but it's basically "want to advertise something? We've essentially got a captive audience and there are a lot of them!"

[–] fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago

Lots of places now

You don't get ads on your gas pump?

[–] thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

They don't exist in my country, and to be frank, I'm shocked the ones in the US aren't vandalised to hell and back by masked vigilantes at night.

[–] SparroHawc@piefed.world 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The screen used for blaring ads is the same screen that you have to read to be able to use the pump.

[–] thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Show ads on the screen -> screen is vandalised -> nobody can buy gas anymore -> people go to the gas station without ads (and thereby functioning screens) -> lose money to the competition-> recognise that you lose money by blaring ads -> stop blaring ads

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Ohh that is a great idea. We can put different markers in different brands and then detect those markers in a customer's breath to tell what brand they are using on the fly.

Then when you develop cancer from exposure we can use this information to market other brands. After all, why would you use Shell gas if it gave you cancer when you could use Exxon instead.
