I'm not sure how much it matters that people are taking notice. If all cars are doing it, what can we do? It's not like people can't buy cars anymore and it's not like individual people can pay off politicians to make it illegal like large corporations can to make it legal.
There are a few options I guess. If enough people notice then there may be more money in being the company that respects privacy and just charges more for the car up front.
It might even encourage more people to buy used instead of new.
Or some people might just decide they don't need a car.
Caring is the first step to actively doing something. The more people that know, the more that will care and the more people that will act. Gotta start somewhere.
