GM Just Got Busted in a $220 Million Scam (And Your Car Is Spying on You Right Now)
GM Just Got Busted in a $220 Million Scam (And Your Car Is Spying on You Right Now), DIY and car review with Scotty Kilmer. General Motors was just hit with a $220 million fine after 35 state attorneys general and Washington, D.C. sued them for secretly collecting driving data through OnStar Smart Driver and selling it to third-party brokers like LexisNexis and Verisk. Even worse, insurance companies used that braking, speed, and GPS data to jack up drivers' rates by up to 80%, while the $220 million settlement goes to lawyers and the government instead of ripped-off consumers. Today I'm showing you how GM lied to 370,000 people who opted out, why plug-in insurance OBD dongles can damage your car's electrical system, how to check your LexisNexis CLUE report, and how to pull your car's telematics fuse so automakers can never spy on you again.
