According to BBC reporting, there's a man who got a copy of his driving data from a company called LexisNexis. It was 130 pages long. Six months of every trip he and his wife took, logged, packaged, and sold without them knowing. Shortly after, his insurance costs jumped 21%. An insurance agent confirmed the data was a factor. He hadn't signed anything that felt like permission. He'd just set up his car's infotainment system. That's where we are with car privacy in 2026. Modern vehicles are collecting your location, your speed, how hard you brake, who's sitting next to you, and in some cases your weight, age, facial expressions, and driving patterns. Mozilla examined 25 car brands and found every single one failed its privacy and security standards. Cars, Mozilla concluded, were the worst product category it had ever reviewed for privacy. And most people have no idea any of this is happening.
