You mean the same people who want all your medical records, the same people who listen in on your cell phones, the same people who claim you have no expected right to privacy, have a problem with this ? Maybe they are just pissed they didn't think of it first.HT SYSTEM-

I'll lay dollars to donuts that as long as onstar shares that info,for free, to the feds, any legal action will suddenly go away.HT SYSTEM-

How would one ever know if they were really pulled out of the program?I heard about this a while ago. I really think they are opening themselves up to a civil suit if they start handing out the info to government agencies. I know I would be all over them if they gave my info out.
I doubt most people know about it but you can opt out.
Never mind...
Or maybe they're duping everyone.

I wouldn't believe anything government motors says. -
While Onstar is biggest, there are other companies just like this in cars (Hyundai has their new Blue Link, BMW's Assist, Lexus' Link, etc.).
I'd be surprised if any of them weren't doing almost the exact same thing.
EXACTLY like this. When I left GM we were in the process of licensing On-Star to other manuf's under different trade names. Lexus Link, for example, is On Star under a different trade name. Not sure about the others.

Not if people refuse to buy cars like that. Keep fixing your old ones minus all the tracking junk.
Anything "smart" is collecting info. Pretty sure everyone knows that by now.⁹HT SYSTEM-
