Privacy concerns
Hey all,
Looking to upgrade in the near future and the sea lion 7 is ticking a lot of boxes.
One of my concerns (not just with cars, but with everything these days) is privacy.
I know most modern cars are collecting info, but my test drive with byd was concerning because it seems they have cameras constantly recording? And the vibe with electric cars these days feels like they are always online (correct me if I'm wrong)
I'm assuming they also collect all the other data too. Location/driving habits/microphone etc.
With other technology in my life, I've been able to take steps to limit the sharing of my data (self hosting my music/movie streaming, blocking trackers on my network, etc) its worked for some, but not all.
What has your experience been with your BYD?
Can your car function normally "offline"?
Is it even possible to stop it contacting home?
Is there any clear info on how the data is collected?
