GM banned from selling your driving data for five years
Customers were surprised when their insurance rates went up.

Shouldn't be legal at all
So they can still collect it, use it for internal purposes, then after 5 years still sell it?
Thats how I read it.
Legally, only if you let them. Illegally, what's the point of the conversation on the first place?
The settlement also requires GM to obtain consent from customers before collecting their driving behavior data, and allow them to request and delete their data if they choose.
I'm curious what the dollar value of this data is per capita. Imagine if you could simply pay $1 for exclusive rights to data collected by GM. Back in reality, they'd go "oops, we sold your data again and hoped you wouldn't notice."
Uh... How about permanently?
Data brokers setting a calendar reminder for 5 years from now.
GM is banned for selling the data.
They are going to give it away for free.....with the purchase of this really cool red paperclip.
Cool, they can survive just fine for five years and then sell :/
This is one useless restriction
.... Weren't they doing it illegally/without consent already?
"you're banned from committing crime"
I'm sure they'll be closely monitored over the next four years
Damn Chinese spy company /s
GM - Government Motors
So... Don't buy GM. Check.
I think GM owns OnStar, so many car models have this installed. I unplugged the OnStar system in my Honda just to prevent this.
