much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
If buying new, I believe you can ask to have the modem removed from the vehicle, which wouldn't allow your car to access the internet. Haven't had the opportunity to try this myself yet, but very much plan on it for whatever vehicle I purchase new in the future.
You really can't
Also don't start breaking your own car like some of these comments suggest. It can go wrong in many ways and may even harm the value of the car.
The situation here is rather bleak really.
Generally these cars have their own always on cellular data connection paid by the manufacturer. So they don't depend on. Your phone for anything.
What they do is record and transmit any sensor data they can. The sexual activity you mentioned, comes from the sensors in the seats that are required to activate seatbelt warnings, or disable the airbags if a child is in the seat. Data from those pressure sensors can be used to determine if there's a certain kind of rhythmic motion happening in a given seat.
They also collect any and all data they can from devices they connect to. Like phones. So don't use carplay, or android auto. Don't use their app. When using Bluetooth audio don't give permissions to make calls or access contacts.
It should be possible to physically disable the onboard cellular radio. That will prevent any live data tracking. Exactly how depends on the specific car you're looking at.
I would assume the dealer can access and download the data manually. Use private non-dealer repair shops for any regular maintance or any repairs possible.
So you’re saying if I fuck the same way Fremen walk the desert, they can’t track my car sex…
Precisely
Muad'Dik!
As long as you have a Google or Apple phone in your pocket... The car will actually not gather much more than your phone already does... So don't overthink it.
