Wow, this article is a great resource to show someone who thinks privacy is pointless because "I have nothing to hide."

It's hard to find good real-world examples of how people's data is being used in ways they would be against if only they knew about them.

Tell that to all the people whose google accounts of 20+ years got locked out with zero recourse or warning.

I don't think it's a weird question at all. But also in some places it's actually not legal to leave it attached when not towing. Then there's the argument about it interfering with the way the vehicle is designed to crash safely.

God no. Just take a hatchet to my battery and be done with it.

You'd be surprised what little impact on battery it actually has. I find this type of swift casting aside of something you've not even tried to be rather disingenuous.

Also, if your device has a cellular modem with an active connection, your provider is already tracking your location constantly and selling your personal information to the highest bidder anyways (including law enforcement and governments), so IMO it's a bit pointless to worry so much about that.
