Comment on Is it possible to have privacy in a modern car?

Do you mean as in tinted windows or the fact that cars now have Android Auto?
If it’s the latter, you would probably be best grabbing an old car and upgrading it piece by piece to current standards. (I would personally love to modernize an “old” Yaris hatchback).

I mean the computerization of the car, especially when it comes to the in car entertainment system that is connected to car’s built in antenna.

You could now see your car’s tire pressue, fuel levels, and some even allows starting your car from a phone app. Who knows what “diagnostic data” is being sent back to the car dealer?

I see.
Well unfortunately, i think we like it or not, it’s the way things are gonna go. (Mostly because most people gonna passively accept this change.)
So like i said earlier, i think the solution for you (and anyone concerned about privacy for that matter) would be to keep your current car’s efficiency and safety features up to date, so that the automatization of cars does not affect you direcrly.
Otherwise, you’d probably be tempted to leave cars altogether.
