I’m looking for an article I either read or heard about during a podcast fairly recently. It stated someone’s kid on vacation visited home, used their parents car, connected their phone to the infotainment system, and since it had access to their phone’s data was able to see who the kid was and increased the parents car insurance policy as their kid was driving their car.
I’ve tried searching the internet for key words unsuccessfully. Does anyone else know what I’m talking about and can provide a link?
Mozilla did a research on it recently. And yes the infotainment system does send data to the insurance company in some countries. Do not use it unless you highly modify it to be privacy-respecting (which is illegal but whatever cuz privacy is more important)
What do you mean its illegal for me to modify my own car’s sound system?!?
