A new study examines how connected cars collect and share driver data, and with which third parties. The findings confirm what privacy advocates have long argued: modern vehicles function as data-gathering machines, transmitting information about drivers to a range of companies. Researchers say the study offers a clearer picture than before of exactly what data cars give away and who receives it, renewing calls for stricter rules on automotive data collection.

Why now: A new study has quantified what data connected cars share and with whom, reigniting privacy concerns.
