What's the last year from which cars don't spy you?
>>
>>29005210
Kinda depends on what you consider spying. If you mean telemetry then that'll be around the time GM introduced OnStar. If you include datalogging only then you'll probably have to go back to non-computerized carbureted cars.
>>
>>29005213
How are people gonna datalog me in my 2008 Camry. It hasn't left my garage. Glowies haven't come in the night to install a bug in it. Why would you need to go back to carburettor cars. Wtf is being datalogged in my car.
>>
>>29005210
IIRC depends on brand. The earliest spy cars are GMs from 1996, but it took a long time before every car had it.
>>
Depends.
Even my ‘22 doesn’t have a SIM card, google/apple integration, or GPS and has zero surveillance.
Most cars with a SIM card can be surveiled in theory, it really depends on the manufacturer. If it has a camera pointed at the driver, definitely it’s fucked. The more recent the more likely.
First post is sorta wrong, most cars until recently only stored 5 seconds of data and don’t transmit anything.
>>
>>29005210
>What's the last year from which cars don't spy you?

Generally speaking 2015 or so.

As this anon said

>>29005237


the GMs with OnStar were already spying on people in the 90s. But most cars didn't have the equipment to be sending out data until after 2015 or so. It depends on make and model.

2015

After 2015 they required black boxes to record car inputs shortly before collisions. There's OnStar as well but not too many cars had that so I don't count it because it's not like the black boxes where it's mandatory for all vehicles.

From 2015 it only got worse

It’s worth pointing out that cars equipped with the old On Star system no longer send and receive data since those use a deprecated 2G wireless communication system that doesn’t operate anymore. The 3G systems (~2010+) still work, though, AFAIK.

>gps isn't data telemetry you dumb faggot
"GPS" can be based on cellular telemetry. For instance, Chryslers from about 2010 on use cellular data for location via an aircard in the radio (which conveniently fries itself most of the time). Volkswagen may have done the same.
>>
>>29005412
I included OBD1 since the data WAS available to those with the specialized equipment (read: factory engineers) if you had it ordered done. There was a court case back in the day that brought this to light where a C4 Corvette crashed and killed people and and in the ensuing court case it was ordered that the datalog be accessed. The very existence of this data, which was not generally known at the time, set all the period's "they're spying on us" schizos off for a while. People calmed down a bit when it was pointed out that this data was not available to just any scan tool. Or even the dealer-level Tech I's and II's. IIRC the case hinged on throttle setting at impact. Don't recall hearing the outcome.
>>
>>29005210
Whatever does not have a shark fin antenna.
>>
>>29006437
The data involved, even in non-sim cars from the last 5 years was just 5 seconds of like 7 channels of data. I’ve had several cars totaled, nobody ever asked to get data from the car. Very different from an active AI software system that scores your driving via unknown metrics and sends your score to your insured company, even if you weren’t the one driving.
>>
>>29006443
NTA, but it IS still available and since I'm not a mind reader to determine what level of schizo OP is it's potentially includable in what he was asking.
>>
>>29006446
I don’t know. I’m pretty schizo, been diagnosed with autism, adhd, psychosis, bipolar, antisocial, borderline, and probably others.
I can clearly see that a potential 5 seconds of info isn’t shit compared to SIM card telemetry, constant logging, phone integration, and driver facing cameras.
>>
>>29006448
I vaguely recall the data also includes what the last maximums were so have fun when the manufacturer sends a ninja team armed with 30+ yo electronics to access that data and voids your (nonexistent) warranty because you went WOT one time.
>>
>>29006450
The normal, non-SIM system records like 3-5 seconds of data. Even what you are saying were true, going 170 a week ago doesn’t legally imply you were at fault for an accident today. Black boxes are fine, the rest? No.

3-5 seconds of data isn’t even comparable to telemetry sent live. How do you not see that?
>>
>>29005567
>faraday
>hard counter
nah, your phone still tracks gyroscope/accelerometer stuff, so as soon as you reconnect, apps that use that data just update. you can see this is you use crap like google maps. put it in a faraday cage, go drive around a bit, take it out, then go to your google account settings and look at location history. viola, all the places you went during your faraday cage "black out" is there. its a lot more rough, of course because onboard gyro/accel isnt that great, but its still good enough.
>i dont use google or google maps
good, but its just an example. literally anything that has permission to read from the gyro/accel can use this data, so, hopefully you know exactly how everything on your phone works.
a much, much simpler/faster check is to just see if your phone goes from landscape to portrait while in a faraday cage. it doesnt need any communication to know up from down, sideways to upright.

tl;dr a faraday is only a temporary soft counter

the "turn your phone off!" thing always gets me. lets be real, lets say you/me are running a surveillance system. someone im tracking, their phone turns off/loses cellular service at 3 pm on a tuesday at their home, when the battery was at 75%? IMMEDIATE red flag, the black vans are already half way there. their phone "turns off" and their license plate shows up at the intersection 5 minutes later? already got my boys on the way to add more bugs to the living room, your clearly gone. does not use the bog standard OS on their phone? i CANT just backdoor it? 4 seperate tails on them, all with evidence ready to plant.

any of these steps you do to "hide" might as well be screaming into the air "IM DOING SOMETHING" while firing flare guns into the air. it sucks ass, but face reality. 99.99% of people do not do these things, and if the goverment really is this evil giant entity trying to track your every move they wont play fucking fair, be serious for one moment.

Is it funny?
Modern "antidepressants" have been proven to not even work. The neurotransmitter imbalance theory has been fully disproven, all "antidepressants" do is cause brain damage.
Weed at least works a little bit and hasn't been proven to cause brain damage. I don't relish the taking away of things that others enjoy - Golden Rule - should laugh when someone else is punished for doing something they enjoy, you should accept greater punishment for your actual indiscretions.

If you're not doing crimes what do you have to worry about?

>>29010984
That's exactly what I'm saying.
I do commit crimes, reckless driving and weed. Never shot a gun, never stolen a thing, never even cheated on taxes, if I don't have documentation I give the IRS the benefit.
The laws can change at any time. 1 year and one week ago I could buy 12,000mg packs of weed gummies in stores, one day it became a felony.
If you support mass surveillance, never forget that laws can change in an instant. It's weed today, it might be what you like tomorrow. Once you say "you've got nothing to hide" and they enact surveillance, they can simply change the laws to control anyone - don't give your government that power, regime changes constantly here.
>>
>>29010991
Thank you for spelling it out for the retards in the back.
Won't change anything though. Patriot Act was the beginning of the end in the US. When the NSA was revealed to have backdoor access and was spying on all Americans the dissenters were shot down with the same excuses. "Nothing to hide, nothing to fear" and "what about the safety of children?"

Then the news cycle switches focus to some protests about a black being shot or a sportball championship or assholes killing eachother over arbitrary bullshit, or any other retarded distractions the narrative demands.

Sadly this. All the efforts that people take to not be tracked are immediately nullified by Flock and other similar technology. Unless you live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere that's stuck in the late-20th century and don't have a phone or computer, you're being tracked. For every 1 measure that you take, big tech already tracked you 10 different ways and already have a full data profile on you down to your pubic hairs. Doesn't mean that you shouldn't continue to be cautious with your data, but you can't not be tracked.

It's not even just that, modern smart phones literally have built in reserves to always be able to ping home even when the device is turned off, and still logging your shit even when the device is disabled and in airplane mode. Unless you are using a burner flip phone that you can physically remove the battery from, it's safe to assume it's keeping tabs on you.

translation: you leave your phone completely unattended. a flock camera scans your license plate/face confirming your infact out of the house. we go in and compromise it.

>>29011733
theres just no good way to combat it. like the poster im responding to above, leaving their phone home every time they leave? red flag. so few people would actually leave their phone at home because its used for so much shit these days.

fun fact: its only been...9 days, since the supreme court ruled you CANT compel third party sources to reveal all your location history without a warrent, if you had been pinged within a certain distance of a crime.
until that point, if you had driven past a crime with google maps on your phone running, the police could, without a warrant, look at your gps data for whatever range/time frame they felt was applicable. cool, huh. Chatrie v. United States.

>>29011785
if they can determine you did so with the intent to conceal a crime, like speeding, its extra charges.

I am the poster above. I hardly use my phone, probably 70% of the time it's so low on battery that it cannot turn on.
I'm Australian and we don't have flock cameras, but we do have government cameras hanging off street-lights that I am always tempted to vandalise.
My car is a 98, doesn't send anything. I have two bikes, I'm sure neither sends anything (one doesn't even have EFI/ABS/anything) but if somebody wanted to follow me on a camera it would be pretty easy to verify I'm the same guy they saw on another camera somewhere else, even if they didn't catch the number plate.

flock scans it, and an automated system notes its the first time this plate as been seen, either
A) ever, its a totally fake plate. red flag
B) in this location, this plate appears to have magically teleported from its last location, bypassing several flock cameras along the way. red flag.
it notifies a manual check by a human, the human looks at goes "huh, thats not a red toyota corrola, thats a white ford f150"

a police officer is dispatched to arrest you. as an added bonus, your car is impounded immediately, as without legal plates, it cannot be legally driven on the road. you spend an estimated 5 to 90 days incarcerated.

if your the australian, then the equivalent system is the license plate scanners (ANPR) on police cars that automatically track/identify license plates. so unless you live somewhere with zero police presence, you do infact, have a surveillance system already in place
>Also cops literally dont have time for that
great news! with A.I being integrated into these systems, its all done automatically. is that lovely? it gets it right....mostly.

anyways, if your solution to being tracked is "live somewhere they dont track", thats fine, it is honestly the best solution. just, your world is getting smaller every day. what are you going to do if you need to go into town? go to a hospital? visit your parents or friends who do live in surveilled areas?

That doesn't change anything, however. You don't attack the symptom, you attack the cause. If I take down a camera, the media would present it as a "deranged insane loner" doing something wrong.

youd have to change it at a supreme court level and it would have to include banning outright all technology from countries outside of your own location, since it would be neigh impossible to force china or russia to comply with your requirements. which means youd have to give up basically all computer chip related equipment, the fabrication in taiwan, yadda yadda. no more pacemakers, no more medical equipment, blah blah blah.
