An investigation by consumer advocacy group Choice found most of Australia’s popular car brands collect and share “driver data”, ranging from braking patterns to video footage.
Kia and Hyundai collect voice recognition data from inside their cars and sell it to an artificial intelligence software training company.
Privacy and consumer rights advocates are pushing for law reform to limit data collection to what is “fair and reasonable”.
I wish they would list how to physically stop the recordings etc. Eg, microphones are located here and here, cameras are there and there. Tape them up, and they can’t record anything.
And I’ve got lots of tin foil for the GPS trackers and other doo-dads 😁
