Should You Remove The SIM In Your Car?

We now know that the data collection in modern cars is out of control -- The question is, how does that data even leave your car? And what, if anything, can you do to stop it? That’s what we cover in this video, Part 3 of our car privacy series: SIM cards, WiFi, and OBD ports. We also talk about how companies trick us into handing over our data, things that we can do to push back against this insane overreach that we’ve somehow normalized, and the giant legal loophole for cars that makes it super easy for law enforcement to collect your data without a warrant. 00:00 Your Car Saw What You Did in the Backseat! 02:57 Don’t plug in ANYTHING 04:41 Satellite and Bluetooth 05:47 WiFi 06:29 SIM Cards 08:22 Find out what’s going on! 11:10 Shady Tactics 14:38 Challenging Data Overreach 16:35 Car Warrant Loophole 18:00 There is Hope There currently are no easy fixes to the problem of car surveillance.
