First paragraph:
>This simple privacy measure would create an opportunity for drivers to protect sensitive information about their travel and whereabouts from mass collection by law enforcement and private data brokers.
- on_and_off 9y agoI already read it :) But I still don't see how it works .. this info can still be collected while you are driving. And what kind of info are you worried private data brokers will get out of your parked car ?

"You have been visiting a private clinic for months, which raises your risk of having a major health issue you have not yet disclosed to us." "You regularly eat at McDonalds, raising your long-term health care costs." Or... "Why has my auto insurance gone up?" "You are regularly at locations associated with illegal street racing." "You are regularly near after market parts stores, and after market parts are correlated with high risk drivers."
