A judge recently ruled that it's perfectly legal for car manufacturers to harvest text messages and call logs from their vehicles, even if those messages and logs are inaccessible to the owners. The judge said that this practice doesn't violate state privacy laws because the information is stored in a way that's inaccessible to the owners. This has raised some concerns about privacy and data collection in cars, since many people store sensitive information on their phones and may not want it being accessed by their car. Do you think this is a cause for concern?
