A shocking thing about Subaru cars with Starlink (their infotainment system and connected service for things like remote start) is how deep the violation of privacy is. For example they share your location data with Sirius XM by default, unless you go deep in their menus to realize it’s even happening and opt out. They bury the consent in fine print that you fly through at the dealership. Truly a despicable company.
- oremolten 2y agoall car companies do this since around 2011.(in the us) they also immediately sell all this data to car insurance companies. many apps on your phone that use location data for anything are mostly using an APK that includes a couple car insurance companies code that also just directly shares that with them. (they made the location APK for app makers to have an easy to use location data tool)
