Can politicians get people excited about getting their cars out of the business of spying?

We get into our cars, carrying our phones, and everything we say, download, and at some point, think can be used by a 3rd party due to the relationship we have with our phones, tv's and cars.
Have we lost our privacy?

Meet The Pardoned Delete Mechanic Who Wants To Stop Your Car From Spying On You
Pardoned mechanic Matt Geouge has built a device that blocks vehicles from spying on their drivers, because in 2018 his fiancée realized investigators were following her. Now he braces for steep opposition from manufacturers as he unveils his new product.

People: “I love having all the accumulated and situationally prioritized knowledge of the world at my fingertips.”
Also people: “OH MY GOD! Someone might learn my plans for picking up a Costco rotisserie chicken on the way home!”

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

Why do you refuse to copy/paste from the articles you share? It isn't hard, you should be able to figure it out.

This is such a simplistic view. Perfect example of the mentality that led to the GOP conceding just about every institution over the last 40+ years.

Geouge had started a smalltime diesel operation in his mother’s garage in Hendersonville, North Carolina, his senior year of high school. As emissions systems on diesel trucks grew more constraining throughout the early 2000s, Geouge started writing “delete” software tunes that let trucks disobey the systems and regain their horsepower.
That got farmers’ and truckers’ rigs out of the emissions handicap, or “limp” mode. It also snowballed into a multi-million-dollar business and earned widespread renown for Geouge, at least in Ford aftermarket circles.....
In late autumn 2019, Geouge spent 20 hours of garage time dismantling and scouring his 2017 F350 for a GPS tracking device.
He found none.
But he found the “black box” telematics modem – standard in newer-model vehicles – the satellite radio antenna, and the GPS hardware. He ripped them out.
Jackson said she was able to ditch the grey SUVs after that.
Geouge stripped telematics devices from another of their couple’s vehicles, and the grey Toyotas fell away from that one too, he said.
Geouge reasoned that investigators were using his own vehicles’ data-transmitting hardware to track him and Jackson......
On July 3 of this year, President Donald Trump pardoned Geouge and eight other diesel techs.
