Cloud connected cars are essentially what happens when companies refuse to admit smart phones are superior for 99% of the stuff they want their car to do, and the other 1% is subscription bullshit.

Nah they're using that cloud connection to spy on you and make money on the backend by selling your data.

Not in the EU they're not.

Legally they can't and if they do it and get caught the fines are proportional to their Worldwide Revenues.
