    When you comment to Bluetooth, it asks your phone to share call, contact and SMS information.

    So they are intercepting your calls and messages with your permission? I don’t see the problem. If you don’t want them to do that, click “deny” when your phone asks if you want to share them with the car.

      I think it’s more of an issue with what the car does with that data. Is it communicated to you in some way, or sent to headquarters to be added to your file for future sale?

      If it’s the former, no harm no foul. If it’s the latter, it needs to be burnt with fire.

      “I don’t understand, if you don’t want crushed orphans, just don’t toss them in the orphan crushing machine”

      Well maybe they shouldn’t have an orphan crushing machine in the first place.
