    Ha ha, you fools! No one is collecting my data from my 22-year-old Scion while I drive past Flock cameras every day.

    Wait...

      There’s “oh he’s at the grocery store” data,

      and then there’s “he’s driving in a way we don’t like, let’s make him pay more for his insurance” data.

        I feel like people are talking about this as a hypothetical. Driving monitoring for insurance is already legal and practiced in every(?) US state besides California. Glad my state is holding out.
