Is there any way to use these chargers with some privacy? What information goes over the cable? Car model, license plate, locations, etc? Charging condom?
Payment is a separate issue and I'm mostly interested in the details above.
- Tagbert 3y agoProbably less information than when you use your credit card to buy gasoline.
- mixmastamyk 3y agoHighly unlikely due to PCI.
- Tagbert 3y agoNot the transaction financial information but certainly the purchase amount and location are not covered by PCI restrictions and if a gas chain can find someone to pay them for that information, then they already have the arrangements and are doing so.
- inemesitaffia 3y agoTrue. The trade-off in Tesla's case isn't selling the data (yet) they use it to manage congestion in thier routing maps
- mixmastamyk 3y agoIndividual ID is at the bank, not the gas station. Cash is still around. Thanks for focusing conversation on the thing specifically called out as well-known and uninteresting.
