This is seriously scary, how easy it is to make disinformation. The article never mentions beaming all this data to the car maker. In which world could you believe that GM could make enough from the data to pay to transfer that much data?

The fact is, they simply don't know what the data GM receive is, they only mentions what the computer store (and what it could potentially store).

This is the world we live in, an article about what data a computer store make everyone believe all this data is send to someone else.



> The article never mentions beaming all this data to the car maker

you are correct, we do not know how much of the data is beamed back

> The fact is, they simply don't know what the data GM receive is

We know they send things like "braking and turning styles" which they will helpfully send to your insurance company if you want :)

> In which world could you believe that GM could make enough from the data to pay to transfer that much data?

The one we live in. You don't pay developers to log, transmit, and store data for funsies.
