A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Done

As expected, Tesla has the worst privacy rating

Second worst were these ones:

Nissan earned its second-to-last spot for collecting some of the creepiest categories of data we have ever seen. It’s worth reading the review in full, but you should know it includes your “sexual activity.” Not to be out done, Kia also mentions they can collect information about your “sex life” in their privacy policy. Oh, and six car companies say they can collect your “genetic information” or “genetic characteristics.” Yes, reading car privacy policies is a scary endeavor.

While they're all bad, Nissan is a no for me. Also between this, the dangerous recalls, and the theft issue, Kia is falling even further down my list

Kia has the whole “getting stolen really easily” thing right now, as well…

Why does it not surprise me to see a certain elongated muskrat razing privacy policies to the floor, again
