Well yes - I don't think it's a stretch to say that legislation is our best hope here. Not in my country, mind you, where I guarantee you that all we will get is lip-service to privacy, data protection, etc.

Hey it looks like some other guy didn't help you much. I'm not going to help much either but I'd imagine that if your model has any kind of smart infotainment type of thing then it's probably being tracked. I mean, from a business perspective, why wouldn't you? It'd be lovely to have systems that allow you to navigate, take photos, listen to music, contact friends...without spying on you. Sadly, I don't think companies see such things as being in their interests.

If you do find a list anywhere, I'd be interested to know. I don't have a VW - just a petrol ford focus, but I imagine that my data is being collected in much the same way as this.

Could you elaborate on this comment? Seems like the person before you went to a mostly black school/college and so has experienced being part of a segregated society/community. Are there areas that are less segregated or not at all? For context I am from the UK, where we have some integration but still quite high levels of segregation; I live in the southeast, in an area which is over 95pc white British, but there are other areas with much higher populations of other races/nationalities (Bradford, in the north midlands, is around 25pc Pakistani, and only a little over 50pc white British).

Did you/do you live in an area that isn't or doesn't feel segregated?

As someone else said, there are some difficult ones that require climbing gear (which reminds me of playing various MMOs) - one in my town is about 15m up a large tree!

Not sure if you mean per year but mortgages are generally going to be over much longer time periods. A couple who I know are looking to buy somewhere new and are looking at getting £400k mortgage or thereabouts. With rates as they are now, and over 25 years, they'll end up paying back £900k!
