      I am new to this and just skimming.

      But at a glance, the article talks about Section 24220 of the “BIL” which does indeed talk about in-cabin monitoring. I wish I could find the actual section of the law on my phone, but this letter from NHTSA talks about it.

      But the articles links seem to be about something completely different.

      Sloppy AF, yes, and in that sense the article is bullshit. But the thing it’s warning about does seem to exist.

      But is it illegal to disconnect or cover the antennae so it cant phone home design and open source a replacement ECU to swap out for the snitch box?
