That's not the point. The point is with connected vehicles you have to share your data if you want the car to drive itself, navigation, services from Google, auto parking etc... There is no way you will own that data.
- spacefight 12y agoWhy not? Why can't there be a solution where you own and control your data to the full extend? Load an offline map, drive to your location, park done. Car GPS have done this for ages. I can't see why your future self driving car shouldn't be able to do the same. Heck, even if you download a current update of the trafic around you over the air, privacy _could_ be baked right into the product. It's not that we couldn't. It's waaaay more easy just to integrate your favorite cloud based engine, I see the pluses of that, but I also see the big big minuses attached to that.
- maxerickson 12y agoYour fatalism is a self fulfilling prophecy. I don't know much about it, but HIPAA seems to be an example of legislation that at least tries to address personal information (in a way that protects the individual...). I guess it is even fairly easy to sketch out a set of rules. Something like no aggregation of data prior to an explicit opt in, a prompt and clear method of turning off the aggregation and a way to obtain any data that is being retained, along with toothy fines for violations.
