Do you know how much of your data already exists on the dark web? Old passwords, data breaches, old accounts you don't even know were hacked years ago.

If you want people to shit their pants in fear, you don't have to make up some made-for-movie bullshit, just show them what's already out there. You're terrified, half this thread is... but I bet you're still chugging along unaffected by the dark shadows.

Sorry, but the boogie man doesn't care about you, no matter how much your main character syndrome demands it. And it doesn't give a shit about me.

Maybe this is for the other forum but around here even there is always a lot of things to be legit concerned about and everyone seems to breeze past those and opt to focus on things that are questionable at best. Or even better the posters seems to assume they are main character and there is a single person in the world that cares about them that they do not already know.

Seems logical that if an Insurance company takes your business, they should have access to your driving habits beyond speeding tickets. With technology today, new cars can collect that info and Insurers get access .

Good drivers should be rewarded. Fun thread.

Been a while since Ive posted

It's the route I've taken, and it's worked out for me.

I don't like car payments.

Your car is already sharing all the data those insurance apps obtain, plus a lot more.

Not sure I've heard of anyone paying for it... I know State Farm is just a free app you download and they can only discount your rates, they don't increase it.

Of course, the cesspoolers will chime in and make up their own future fiction from that 'slippery slope', but at this very moment that's how it works.

LOL. I'd be shocked if that application you've installed on your phone isn't pinging some 3rd party service and sending your coordinates, speed, heading, make-model, name, marital status,family data, address, etc to 3rd party streaming aggregators (data brokers). Unbelievable that people do this sort of crap just to save a few penny's on the dollar.

My mother in law signed up for this recently. After a month, we shut it off. It was tracking her from an app on her phone ALL THE TIME, whether she was driving or not. She had several "violations" where she was a passenger in someone else's car.
