Interesting considering I've not been happy about the lack of privacy regarding driving/location metrics by Tesla automobiles. Has that improved any?
Edit: I'm no longer allowed to post on HN. I guess my posts are considered low-quality and not welcome here. Here is my response to the comment below, regardless. Thanks for continually banning me, downvoters.

> Why does that bother you?
Because you exclusively use logical fallacies in these posts to make points that make no logical sense.
> whether Tesla will start caring about privacy as well
This implies Tesla does not care about privacy. That simply is not true. If you have a concern, voice it in some logical manner, not in some accusatory already-made-up-your-mind tone about how so-and-so doesn't care about your privacy.

Edit 2: Does Elon really babble on Twitter about people's speeds and driving locations? I don't think so. And surely if you drive a car then you know that the people in the city/state/federal government offices and other tracking corporations also know where you go at all times anyway. Having a Tesla and driving it does not meaningfully invade your privacy in any fashion more than driving any other car does.

They track you by the millisecond versus a few times a day, perhaps you are not aware of the details:

Basically Tesla uses your driving metrics against you when they choose to, but will not release the information to help you. It has been a lose-lose situation for the consumer. I'd heard they might give the ability to disable it, but details are hard to find to nonexistent.
They seem to take the same attitude as Facebook, mainly: we own all your data and you have zero rights to anything in the car.
