Is Toyota Spying On Us?

“Court rules automakers can record and intercept owner text messages”

Big brother is here watching/ listening. Nobody really seems to care

 

Just thought I would share the news story with TW members. It is good to be aware of the news story, but I personally don’t care. If Toyota really wants to know what my wife texted me to pick up at the grocery store, so be it.

 

Who isn't?????

 

I encourage everyone to read up on their data sharing, especially in 2020+ models. The DCM module is sharing and the data is being sold to affiliates.

You can opt out by pushing the SOS button and talking to an agent at Toyota and they will sever the connection.

Privacy is gone, but there is limited control still.

 

I emailed Toyota asking if they are a cop but I haven't heard back from them yet. I will update when I get a response.

 

Wait until you read through this...

We aren’t that interesting. Listen away.

 

I’m continually amazed at how many people don’t care about losing their freedoms. I’m not trying to be political but my privacy means something to me and I go to great lengths to sever any spying on me that I can. I really don’t understand why in this country we are not automatically an opt out on all this sneaky shit.

 

Yes.

We never were free…

…at least not in the total anarchy sense of the word.

 

We have been led around by our nose rings since the 1970's. We all should embrace it. Privacy stopped a long time ago. Your truck is just a tiny part.
If you fully sever any tech and only use cash or barter, you can have privacy. Once you use credit card, cell phone, internet for anything, you have zero privacy. Accept it or not.

 

I truly believe that front “lane keep assist” camera has more a sinister purpose

It ain't just Toyota.... ALL mfg's are doing this. And all this really started (In smaller and different ways) 30-something years ago.
But wait! It's just gonna get better!!

[Verse 1]

Up here in space, I’m looking down on you

My lasers trace everything you do

You think you’ve private lives, think nothing of the kind

There is no true escape, I’m watching all the time


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m made of metal

My circuits gleam

I am perpetual

I keep the country clean


[Chorus]

I’m elected electric spy

I’m protected electric eye


[Verse 2]

Always in focus, you can’t feel my stare

I zoom into you, but you don’t know I’m there

I take a pride in probing all your secret moves

My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m made of metal

My circuits gleam

I am perpetual

I keep the country clean


[Chorus]

I’m elected electric spy

I’m protected electric eye


[Guitar Solo]


[Bridge]

Electric eye, in the sky

Feel my stare, always there

There’s nothing you can do about it

Develop and expose

I feed upon your every thought

And so my power grows


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m made of metal

My circuits gleam

I am perpetual

I keep the country clean


[Chorus]

I’m elected electric spy

I’m protected electric eye


[Outro]

I'm elected electric spy

I'm elected, protected, detective, electric eye

 

This is why I prefer old school. Give me an AM/FM Radio, hand crank windows, And A/C of course and I'd good! (OK, Back-Up Camera because I am an old fart!)
