Do you know your new car has a black box? Bye privacy....
Think you have privacy in your own car? Think again. I bet most new car owners are not even aware that 96% of all new cars sold in the US have black boxes. 100% by next year.
Yes, the car owner 'owns' the black box. And they are designed to help solve who did what in accidents. But NY and 13 other states allow police and civil litigants to get your black box with a court order. That number will increase.
Technology and privacy. Seemingly not very synonymous nowadays...
