Announcement Data collection on your vehicle. Be careful

[snoopdoggie]

Some drivers are using driving telematics to save money on insurance and there are now built in factory safety devices such as Onstar. Some data collected can include places where the vehicle is driven to, where it is parked and for the length of time it is parked there. So if you don't want anyone to know that you're doing some hobbying on the side, be warned. Don't park in front or close to a massage spa. Park at least a couple hundred feet away, so if looks as though you went shopping for groceries or went to restaurant or something like that.

This is nothing Kreepjee hasn't done for years.
He just uses golf pencils to document your vehicle.

I believe it. He probably has a big log book with license numbers.

Yeah true, but with your car, your insurance looks at it, and probably with law enforcement if they have a search warrant.

Insurance apps collect your data.
GPS collect your data.
Your phone collects your data.
You debit card collects your data.
CCs collect your data.
Your phone collects your data.
Your computer collects your data.
MS apps collects your data.
Google, Tik Tok, Facebook, twitter (x) and ALL social media apps collect your data.

All of them use it, to sell you stuff , to track you likes, to see what you are shopping for, see what you are browsing, buying or just looking at.

Keeping them all out is a full time job. pretty annoying shit.

True, but the insurance app isn't as private as the others on your list.
