Disabling OnStar by pulling the fuse should keep cars from phoning home with info. I don’t know if they still collect it though.

Yeah, laws are only as good as their enforcement. Hopefully NY can get on that.

Someone I know who worked on it told me what he thought the root cause was, I guess we’ll see if corporate shares the same conclusion.

The settings button on the top right of the main website has an area for a template. But I think this picture is having issues too, I’ll see if I can update it. Also, the spot I suggested has been taken since, I’ll try and see if there’s a new location.
