Just buy a Tesla.<p>For those of you who think for yourselves and are still reading, I'll explain why.<p>They have the best practices of any connected car listed, it's all opt in, and they collect nothing tied to your ID. Privacy aside, also there's no haggling, and it's a better car with lower TCO and more efficient drive train and wicked fun. The leather and mahogany and built in cigar cutter is not there, but hey you have a charging network.<p>Back to privacy, to me it's a feature, not a bug, that you can view live video from your car's many cameras while you are far away from your car. I can check from the office whether my garage door is open. That's good, not bad. Mozilla is really amping up the hyperventilation to think of this as a negative.<p>If you read carefully it sounds like nobody contributing to the article actually sat in a Tesla and went through the experience of how choices are presented.<p>The way I look at it most of the negatives they tried very hard to come up with in the article for Tesla boil down to "it seems we aren't sure if we can trust them because look at us, doing business with Google, which is also a privacy nightmare, and if we posture like this, Tesla might too" which is all fair, but very weak.<p>You actually don't see Tesla posturing about privacy, although maybe they might after this article. That would be reasonable. When you do read the fine print, it is very good for consumer privacy.<p>Just buy a great car that you love, but also one that you won't regret buying later.
