    I've been thinking about how many requests I get from broker partners to share my ELD Data/location data. I find it frustrating how many times I have to connect my data in different ways. I wonder if it'd be possible to plug my data into an app that has all the people I work with already there. That way if I have the available capacity or need a backhaul etc. people are actively checking in on my data and inputs. Have you guys seen anything like this in the market? Thanks!

    I wouldn't share any of that precious data with anyone unless by court order or government agency audit.

    Tell them if they want your info call your company, you are not authorized to give that out. Your company will tell them to go pound sand.

    Or.....you might be your company, like many of us, which is why I tell people stuff like that all the time. "Sorry, my company doesn't do that, company policy" It's the ultimate copout.
