No, the issue is not cars, the issue is governments allowing, or actively pushing these companies to mass surveillance on a wide scale. This goes beyond the car. Children born today will never experience Privacy.

This indeed, it is quite easy to scan video feeds of the interior camera and determine these characteristics, as well as link them to social media scraping to find your preferences. Scary AF

No clue, I’m a Dutch citizen. Do your require to do an iris scan to get a passport in the USA? Might be covered there.

Its been here for decades. It was already mandatory to provide an iris scan upon arrival in the US back when I visited New York in 2013. At the time, I was already baffled it was a requirement and wasn't happy, but at that moment there is nothing else to do then comply. The US probably has a very big iris scan, fingerprint and passport database of at least the western world.

Yeah it is a good one, graphics are a bit dated, bur the game is super complete. I read some reviews of the newer games, but these appear to be repackaged mobile games, with the pay to play features stripped. The newer games also lCk management features that RT3 does have.

Sure they are for now, but I doubt there reason changes will attract additional revenue. They had a golden position in which people simply paid the subscription, because the service was convenient and cheap. Now they make it way less convenient and more expensive, I doubt people want that. I sure don’t, so I’m out
