Toot

@RnDanger @VulpineAmethyst We do know a few things about the way Tesla uses the AT&T network, specifically that they pay by the megabyte for data and are bandwidth limited. That means that while the connection is active, they could upload things like your location history, uploading everything in your camera's cache would probably be off the table.

Thing is, they can only get snapshots of your activity every few months when you plug in the SIM at a supercharger (I wouldn't do this when I'm at home.) So, Elon can't unlock your car or watch you pick your nose while you drive 99% of the time.

Thing is, we haven't touched on WiFi. I think it goes without saying that you shouldn't connect your Tesla to your home WiFi network in this situation either, but I suspect that superchargers and dealers may have WiFi that the car will connect to automatically and maybe without telling you. Heck, Teslas may hotspot to each other or do so in the future.

It's not just Tesla, Ford wants their vehicles to repossess themselves. We're entering dangerous waters with these new vehicles.
