She stopped responding to him, she said, even though he texted and called her hundreds of times.
Ms. Dowdall, 59, started occasionally seeing a strange new message on the display in her Mercedes, about a location-based service called “mbrace.” The second time it happened, she took a photograph and searched for the name online.
“I realized, oh my God, that’s him tracking me,” Ms. Dowdall said.
That sounds like a bonus to me. Seriously I have bad luck with those type of sensors, fulty pieces of crap. Also built in navigation is shit and if it also breaks every other stupid feature like bluetooth or back up cam id consider that a bonus. Mind you if I ever got an electric car id probably cut off the roof and remove the doors to improve the mileage. So maybe I shouldnt be allowed near modern cars.
Tesla let you opt out of all connectivity. No need to cut any wires or disconnect any antennae.
Ed. Sure downvote me because you hate the brand, they are still the only brand that lets you make your new car almost* as privacy respecting as an old one
*It will still store driving data in the car, which your insurance company may use for our against you
I dont trust tesla, also you couldnt pay me to drive their cars.
