> Yes, but to me there's another important issue, with all the tracking tech in our vehicles, who actually owns them?

It's even worse. Your car acts as a blackbox against you. A 1990's car? I can do whatever the fuck I want to, I can drive it offroad, I can speed, I can even be near a bank robbery or whatever.

A modern car? Someone robs a bank a few hundred meters from where I am, and now the police will come knock on my door because the IMEI of my car was near the bank when the robbery happened. I speed a little bit to overtake some dumbass driving 20 km/h below the limit, the police makes a dragnet subpoena against my insurance / the data processor from the manufacturer, and issues me a ticket.
