Your Car Is a Smartphone on Wheels, and It's Listening
Original: Car Is a Smartphone on Wheels. Here's Who's Listening
A Northeastern University project examines how modern connected cars, functioning like smartphones on wheels, collect data on drivers and passengers. The work looks at which companies and systems have access to in-car microphones, sensors and telemetry, raising questions about consent and surveillance. Commenters online are debating how much privacy drivers actually give up in newer vehicles.
Why now: Growing public concern over data collection and eavesdropping in connected vehicles.
