    Now I’m just curious what data they’re collecting and how. Like are they seeing if I’m getting down in the back seat or getting road head on the highway, or are they pulling this info off a connected phone?

      Possibly the Bluetooth/WiFi connection with your phone? That’s all I can think of.

      I don’t think they’re intentionally collecting sexual activity. Moreso that they might incidentally, via your phone app.
