There's no statute prohibiting it, so it's legal until they lose in court.

- tremon 3y agoWhat about states with all-party consent for recording conversations?
- nerdponx 3y agoSure, but that's dependent on jurisdiction. Maybe you have standing in federal court if you drive from a one-party-consent state to a two-party-consent state, making it a matter of interstate commerce. Or a federal court would just rule that it's governed by the law of the state in which you registered the vehicle. In the US there's no federal protection for this that I'm aware of.
- ben_w 3y agoGDPR, to the extent that this data collection also occurs with European vehicles Are you sure there aren't local data privacy rules elsewhere that this also violates? GDPR itself basically just unified the existing privacy laws across ~EU member states.
- nerdponx 3y agoI was thinking about the USA in my post, but if the GDPR protects against this then that's great. I've also seen mention that in e.g. Germany the standard EULA is basically illegal (or at least unenforceable) because you can't reasonably agree to it.
