Episode 53 of The Privacy Podcast: Lucas and Luna reveal how modern cars collect location data, driving habits, and even in-cabin conversations — and sell that data to brokers, insurers, and advertisers. They break down the case of a Ford F-150 whose GPS data was used to raise the owner's insurance premium without consent. Plus, they explain how a 2025 FTC complaint against General Motors for sharing driving data with LexisNexis has put the entire auto industry on notice. Listeners learn the specific privacy settings to disable on their own vehicles and why the right to repair movement is now a privacy battle. The episode closes with a look at the proposed bipartisan 'Driver Privacy Act of 2026' and what it means for consumers. A must-hear for anyone who drives a car made after 2018. #Privacy #DataBrokers #CarData #ConnectedCar #LocationTracking #Insurance #FTC #LexisNexis #GeneralMotors #Ford #RightToRepair #DriverPrivacyAct #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ConsumerRights #DataProtection #GDPR Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
