DON’T Connect Your Phone To Your Car!

Modern cars are a privacy nightmare. It’s worse than you realize. In this video we dive into all the types of data your car is collecting about you: from video footage, microphone recordings, location data, biometrics, all the way to files/contacts/photos ingested from your phone! 00:00 Cars are NO place for a private conversation! 02:11 What data is our car collecting? 05:41 Video footage 06:16 Microphones 08:09 Location 08:40 There’s a SIM card in your phone, sending off all your data! 10:01 Telematics 10:56 Sensors: Capturing weight, emotions, etc 11:10 DON’T CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO YOUR CAR! 13:00 Who is getting access to our data? 14:06 This is a huge problem This is the first video in a series we’re doing on car privacy. Later in the series we examine: - how easy it is to hack modern cars - trackers in cars that you had no idea existed - the perverse incentives that drive companies to collect as much data about us as possible - the history of when this all started - dangers of used cars: the previous owner of your car might still have access to all your car’s remote features, tracking tools, and cameras! - how to wipe your own information and location history from your car before you sell it - how to opt out of this collection and better protect yourself We really need to get a conversation going around car privacy, and increase awareness. It’s so important we push back against the normalization of these practices, starting now.
