Vehicles are now recording driver behavior, assigning grades, and selling those records to third parties without explicit driver consent. The practice creates a surveillance system operating inside consumer products. Drivers are unaware they're being monitored and scored.
Automakers are turning cars into surveillance devices and monetizing the data without transparent disclosure or consent. A driver doesn't know his insurance company, employer, or third-party data brokers are buying his driving grades. This is consumer surveillance embedded in a product people depend on for daily life. The lack of transparency and consent makes it a privacy violation that happens in the background.
