Federal Trade Commission: Some say the car a person drives can say a lot about them. As cars get "connected," this turns out to be truer than many people might have realized. While connectivity can let drivers do things like play their favorite internet radio stations or unlock their car with an app, connected cars can also collect a lot of data about people. This data could be sensitive--such as biometric information or location--and its collection, use, and disclosure can threaten consumers' privacy and financial welfare. Connected cars have been on the FTC's radar for years. The FTC highlighted concerns related to connected cars as part of an "Internet of Things" workshop held in 2013, followed by a 2015 report. In 2018, the FTC hosted a connected cars workshop highlighting issues ranging from unexpected secondary uses of data to security risks. The agency has also published guidance to consumers reminding them to wipe the data on their cars before selling them--much as anyone would when trying to resell a computer or smart phone. read more
