Vote with your dollars. I know one brand that has the most leading edge tech and does not sell my data so I bought from them. However they do use my anonymized data to train models for a future FSD capability but only because I opted in to that.

Haven't they been caught snooping on customers before with their in car surveillance?

Which brand? And what's to stop them from changing your opt in toggle on after an update as we've seen countless companies do time and time again?

I want a car that doesn't collect the data, not one that gives a pinky promise not to sell still collected data.

Which brand is that if you don't mind me asking?

“FSD?” You aren’t talking about Tesla, are you? “Vote with your dollars?” So you voted for regulatory capture, election interference, erosion of free speech (due to concentration of media power), and you’re financially supporting an openly racist, openly fascist oligarch who’s let the mask completely slip? I can’t even mention the gesture he did on the inauguration stage, because the mods tend to delete any mention of that. Galaxy brain moment. /s

The fact that you even said that with a straight face. If you buy a Tesla in >2025 you’re morally bankrupt. Yeah… I’d rather my data get sold than support any Musk-led company.
