EU Parliament Decides That Your Private Messages Must Not Be Scanned
I don’t like this but it seems like it is an accurate application of law (IANAL), right?
The right place to fix this is in the company’s policies and in the laws in the first place.
Of course, making those company policies more clear and available is important too. Even by TOS standards, I can’t imagine many people have read it for their car.
How stringent is the WPA standard anyway? The texts have to be stolen at gunpoint for the express purpose of jerking off to stolen dicktures?
Can we just buy this asshole’s data and do something funny with it ourselves?
Judge r00ty has ruled that it’s fine for you to do this.
Judges who take any kind of compensation from large corporations should be stripped of their skin and left to publicly bleed out on display for the world, a constant supply of lemon juice and vinegar showering them.
Your texts are not the property of the auto makers. Guess auto companies don’t want you to go hands free. Could open all kinds of extra law suits. Save a dollar and lose a thousand.
