Tesla Ranked as the 'Creepiest' Carmaker, with 25 Brands Failing Data Privacy Tests

Tesla, Nissan, and Hyundai are among the car brands that failed basic data privacy tests conducted by the Mozilla Foundation. In its Privacy Not Included Research, Mozilla found that none of the 25 car brands reviewed passed the tests, with Tesla being marked for untrustworthy use of AI. The research revealed that carmakers collect excessive personal data and often share or sell it to third parties. Renault, Dacia, and BMW were considered the "least creepy" options, but overall, the lack of control and options for consumers in terms of privacy in the automotive industry is a concern.
