As the 21st century advances, it is becoming clear that we are not simply living in George Orwell’s 1984, but we in fact have exceeded Orwell’s wildest nightmares.
Case in point is a mind-blowing incident in Florida. Cathy Bernstein was having a regular day when the police came knocking at her door, asking about her potential involvement in a hit-and-run.
But it was the source of the police’s information that made the affair incredible: apparently, her car had dialed 9/11 and tipped police off to Bernstein’s involvement in said hit-and-run.
As it turns out, Bernstein’s vehicle, a newer model from Ford, is one of 10 million vehicles put out by the company that possess what is called the “911 Alert” feature. What happens is that the car automatically calls authorities in the case of an accident, potentially saving lives but also potentially incriminating thousands.
Turn to the next page for more about this invasive technology:
The same tech that your insurance company is using to determine what people like you do with cars like yours is also used by anyone who can hack or get a warrant. Hell… they don’t even need warrants anymore. The tech that might be used one day to locate someone doing something nefarious is being used daily to determine if the owner or operator is doing something illegal.
This is why you should remove the airbag control module from the car. I would also pop open the antenna and cut the cable for the for wifi, but that is just me. They are not adding features for your benefit, it is for theirs.
Onstar can do the same function. It should be disconnected, if not outright removed, if possible. There is no reason to ever allow anyone the ability to shut off your vehicle.
84 F150. I can run over anyone I want. Don’t have any lights in the dash.
Who didn’t see this coming?
Jake Greene better watch out!
Someday, all freedom to drive will be gone in the name of safety. Computerized cars and highways will instantly ticket, do toxic screenings and shut down upon police commands.scary.
Yes! Big difference…
Don’t want that car either way…
remember when they did the clunker scam? so you have to buy new ones
Thas cool. Could never affrd new car anyway.
ALL TRUMP FANS NEED TO BE AWARE OF THIS**** The negative ads against Trump, all the adds for Bush paid for by the PAC Pimps, all of the hype by the media that Hillary can beat Trump, all the GOP candidates staying in the race with single digit % numbers, all the low polling GOP Candidates spewing negative comments about Trump, the media constantly bringing the low polling candidates on air to comment on anything and everything…..this is all a plan by the GOP Establishment to keep Trumps percentages below 50% in every state. This will allow the GOP establishment the opportunity to hand pick who the delegates will go to at the GOP National Convention even if Trump wins the popular vote. All popular votes must come in above the 50% mark in every state which will prevent the GOP from assigning that states delegates to whomever they want. Why do you think Jeb Bush keeps saying that Trump isn’t going to win the nomination? It is because he is in on this GOP Conspiracy to keep Trump from getting the GOP nomination. Bush is pretty sure that Trump will not make the 50% mark and already knows that those delegates will go to him making him the nominee. WAKE UP TRUMP SUPPORTERS AND SPREAD THIS TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE!!!!! This is sickening and no one is talking about it..the media isn’t talking about it, the GOP is banking no one starts talking about it. VOTE VOTE VOTE FOR TRUMP. Keep the GOP from bringing him down right before the National Convention. The GOP is banking on the Trump supporters not getting wind of this. They are banking on this so that after the primary elections are over it will be too late for us to do anything about it. They literally do not care if Hillary gets into office as all of them are sleeping together and are terrified if Trump gets into office all of their gravy trains will disappear. Obamacare, the Trade Agreement, Common Core all things that are making the PAC Pimps LOTS OF MONEY!! It is up to Trump Supporters to start to bring this to the forefront. The media never will as they are part of the PAC Pimps. VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!! FOR TRUMP!!! The GOP does not care if anyone runs 3rd party because they do not care if Hillary wins. If Trump runs 3rd party and loses and causes Hillary to win, the GOP doesn’t care. The GOP will take Hillary over Trump
