Mozilla did a great job listing all of the privacy violations by category and manufacturer.
Investigating it so he can start selling Texans data as well I assume.
Nah so he can prosecute people crossing state lines for abortion
I’m glad I have a dumb car! It gets me where I need to go and doesnt log my every move.
You just think we’re not watching?!! Mwaaahhaahahaaaaa
Im quite sure everyone else’s dash cams are!
It’s kinda hard for them to collect data without an LTE or satellite data connection.
They probably mean all the traffic cams and stuff and junk that tracks you. Oh and your phone, probably
Gotta switch to Linux phones and iPhones to minimize the risk on the phones side of things
Certainly not iphones tho, right??? Aren’t they the biggest aggressor against privacy?
iPhones encrypt everything locally, as well as in iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime. No apps can access any data outside of data entered into the app itself without explicit user consent. They’ve repeatedly fought the FBI on creating backdoor access, and have yet to lose. They only collect anonymous user data for in-house engineering if the user chooses to opt-in. If you ask for your GDPR abstract of data from Apple, it will only include your name, billing address, and phone number. Apple is big on privacy.
And you can find your lost phone even when it’s off!
Same, I love my 2002 Subaru. The most high tech thing in it is my bt stereo I installed that only connects to my phone. Everything I could possibly need in a smart car is Google Maps, which is on my phone, and a simple music forward/backward/pause for Bluetooth. Nothing more!
Something something broken clock. Absolutely fuck Ken Paxton, but this is the right thing to do.
He’s not going to find anything but some extra money in his bank account, and then the corpros will point to the “investigation” for a decade.
I’m so not surprised
I’m surprised it’s going down in Texas
Texas Attorney General is jealous that companies were able to buy it and he didn’t even know it was for sale.
The average car is about to get a lot older till this crap is regulated out of existence
He’ll probably just get bribed and give up
Bad people can occasionally do good things, tbh. But it doesn’t make them good people.
