    This case is from 2024. The court didn't rule that what the automakers are doing is OK. They ruled that the people who filed the suits didn't meet the requirements to show that the actions of the automakers caused them any actual harm so the case was dismissed because the plaintiffs had no proof of any wrong doing.

    Don't want the automakers to have access to your information? Then don't connect your phone to their systems. It asks when you connect if you want to share that info.

    Another headline looking to piss people off with no information about the actual story.
