The surveilled society: Who is watching you and how

You should be aware that with "connected cars", some contracts were extended with a duty of warning from the vehicle owner to any guest: "I need to inform you that if you enter my car, you accept to be profiled by the manufacturer and its partners" (see https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/privacynotincluded/article... ).

So, which "taxis"? Taxis are getting extinct - with cars. (You did not expect by entering a taxi to subscribe a sinister contract with unclear entities - and some will plainly refuse it. The "unlivable society" proceeds.)

This was in New York City.

There absolutely should be some kind of notice, or at least an opting-in (where the "opt-in" is not the act of simply getting into a cab).

It's irritating a vital service like this becomes an "all or nothing" deal, where I can't selectively opt-out of some shady practice and still use the fundamental service.
