[DeTomaso] NPC: Disgusting

Although the recent advances in "networked" car computers allows the
authorities (or who ever has access to the information) to monitor ones
driving habits and violations Which presents potential problems beyond the
scope of just Law Enforcement. I feel confident that insurance companies
will soon be monitoring this information to raise rates, cancel policies or
even deny claims when they discover driving that either violates laws or
their companies terms and conditions of coverage. Prior to the
implementation of networked cars Law enforcement was already seizing
computers  from cars involved in accidents to determine the speed the car
was traveling (as well as other data) when it was involved in a collision.
I have read of cases where car owners have removed the computer after an
accident to prevent the authorities from obtaining it. I'm fairly confident
that an action to prevent the authorities from gaining access to the cars
computer after an accident could be construed as "tampering with evidence"
, I am equally confident that if laws don't already exist to give
authorities permission to seize vehicles computers after an accident or
incident they soon will. With GPS, facial recognition the installation of
networked video cameras, domestic drone use , and domestic telephone taps
aren't enough there will probably come a day in the not to distant future
where everyone has some form of implanted chip ostensibly to monitor ones
health but with a much more devious hidden agenda in mind. They say "truth
is stranger the fiction" in the case of the advances being made in
monitoring the populace it would certainly seem that reality has surpassed
the imagination of our sci-fi authors.
