Is there a company yet that let’s me pay them to internet disconnect and rip out sensors on a modern car?

I recognize that its a tricky process, but since the Mozilla report, it seems like there’s a market for it. I’d happily pay $5k for a privacy-mod to an electric vehicle.

You misspelled: “I will happily re-elect and maybe donate to someone that will vote against this bullshit use of people’s data.”

No

I don’t want this data to exist

That’s different from controlling use

Either way, it’s better not to force people to pay to keep their privacy.
