“…ending the contracts doesn’t necessarily mean the cameras will come down immediately — or that the information they’ve gathered will be deleted anytime soon.”

“Sure, consumers may accept useful safety equipment such as backup cameras, but many don’t want their vehicle tracking everything they do — and they definitely don’t want to see ads on their vehicle screens.”

@hellobrittparis.bsky.socialSep 11, 2026, 4:46 PM
