    Hope to see a new market for disabling telemetry and phonehome features from cars. It should be legal to do so, if you own the car I suppose. I'm thinking that rigth now few pople even know how much spying their new car does to them but this will change and as awareness grows more and more people will want to do it.

      I'd rather see it as a standard feature than as a new market.

        Sure, that goes without saying. But the current direction of anticonsumer surveillance seems to be going in a different direction. While waiting for the pendullum to hit back we can take it into our own hands and protect ourselves.
