Add in the ever-increasing level of computer control, data recording & monitoring devices in new cars, and I honestly don't know if I will ever be buying a car produced any later than the 90s. Even GM cars from the mid 90s onward have had crash data recorders in them which record the vehicle telemetry and all your control inputs for the 5 seconds prior to impact; sounds great for impact & safety research, right? That's the official purpose of them. Well, people are already being prosecuted for vehicle-related crimes with the crash data their own car recorded. It doesn't take too great of an imagination to see what kind of privacy-right implications all the computer control in these cars has. Our society is fast approaching
Minority Report'ish levels of personal monitoring.
