    I get good insurance rates, and I told them to stuff it when they “offered” to spy on me wherever i go.

    And lmao that you actually think “good driving” and “driving favored by insurance actuaries” are even remotely the same.

      I never said they are the same. But there is enough overlap to get me a decent discount.

        Unless you just had your rates in the absolute shitter beforehand, you have very low standards for what a decent discount is, especially when you consider that you’re normalizing them taking an overwhelming amount of data about you to create future insurance profiles for everyone.
