The sensitive information of VW, Audi, Seat, and Skoda EV owners was left exposed on an unprotected and misconfigured cloud storage system for months
A fine example to add to the list of reasons I love my 20 year old vehicle and will not be parting with it.
Was thinking the same thing
this is a big part of why people in my area don’t want EVs, even though new gas cars will have the same spying bullshit.
there really is no choice but to get an old car with goos body condititon and do a diy build, assuming you can get the adapters or cad and machine it yourself… and strip all the gas parts off, weld on battery racks, weld on additional structural bracing depending on how the gas parts may have provided that funcionality, etc.
Most ICE cars are doing that.
We literally just got a bunch of news about it. Most sell your data to brokers and/or keep it for other purposes.
Information society is here and it’s scary as fuck.
Got a link to those cad files?
No, i did not go to that motel for 3 hours
This information should never ever have been collected in the first place.
This was the biggest reason I didn’t want a new car in this day and age.
Time to fill out these forms from the VW group. https://privacy.vwgoa.com/
Im hoping they failed to delete my info from my request last year. This is lawsuit material.
