Your car is stealing your data. Here’s how. | WheelHouse 

So Honda knows my top speed on my commute? Is that why I keep getting pop ups from the local funeral home offering for me to pre-pay?

If my car was selling my data, it better be giving me some of that money for gas and repairs.

“You see that star on the logo? Flip it upside down”. *this video has been demonitized*

*talks about bombs while driving *Car start dialing the FBI while sweating oil

"Your Car is Selling Your Data" Regular People: *GASP* IT People: "Well, Duh"

Porsche refuses to implement Android Auto on its cars because Google asks for too much data about their drivers, theres something to look at.

Everyone: *gasp* Me: *pulls choke on '82 rx-7 to start*

My concern is that, if we get to some extreme circumstances, data will be used to treat individuals differently. Like, imagine if your car sends info to your insurance company that you are speeding, raising your particular insurance rates. At the current moment things aren't that bad, but the moment data tracking becomes used as a means to supervise individuals' unique behaviors this all could become quite problematic.

Bro my Jeep can't even roll it's own windows up, I don't think it's spying on me

*start wondering if my 1953 volvo 444 pv is spying*

Cell phones record SO much data most people wouldn't believe it. It knows where you are, can use the mic and cameras without you knowing, and even in airplane mode, knows where you are. It just doesn't send data until you're out of airplane mode. In fact, most of the time, the phone is so accurate, it knows if you're on the first or second, or 13th floor of a building. You are tracked by which wifi your phone attempts to connect to, and uses all of the data collected to target ads at you. My truck sending data about me, not unbelievable and I really don't much care. But, if you're planning on committing a crime, don't take a new vehicle. All that data can be collected.

lol this aint a problem for us classic car drivers

One of the Vin wiki stories was about OnStar calling the car because there average speed was high and thought someone had stolen the car or driving it recklessly. They were on a race track. Mind your dam business OnStar!

Has data collection gone too far? Why are we okay with phones and social media collecting our personal info, but not our cars? Or maybe you are fine with it, where do YOU draw the line? I wanna know, tell me what you think! Also thanks everyone for grammar-checking the title, my bad 😬😬😬

I love how Australian internet is too slow for them to even bother tracking my data haha

Suddenly Im ok with the fact that my 97 civic barely has functioning radio

Me: Why ware trunks so big in the 50's FBI agent from the trunk: Idk

*sees my data* 👀 👀 👀 "What's wrong with this guy?"

I just watched this in my car, now it's locked with me inside. Heck the battery is dead again

My 68 Mercedes and 77 volvo 244 aren't smart enough to even know what data is

It's all coming together... GM stands for.... GOVERNMENT MOTORS I knew it holy crap!!!!

Cop: I clocked you doing 85 Me: no.... I wasn’t above 70 Car: 87 officer. 76 ina 35 yesterday, drag racing Friday night, no seatbelt, went through a red light on main and second.........

This is a very serious issue. Thanks so much for devoting your time to making people aware of this. Now do a video on how to rip all that garbage out of the car. We do the same thing with emissions equipment, so why not with surveillance equipment?

Fun fact, all new cars sold in the European Union since April 2018 are connected vehicles

Nobody: Nolan: Im gonna wear this UFO shirt today

The title is a bit weird. Is your car is selling your data? Edit: they changed it now, cool

5:55 instant regret🤣🤣

Pro tip: Do NOT park anywhere near a sex toy shop.

Pretty sure my 98 DX Civic is safe. I don't even got a clock, and barely got a casette player and manual windows 😂

Is there a VPN for cars? I’m willing to buy one.

That’s why everyone should buy Italian cars, because the systems will never work.

Great video, I knew all this already. Also never use the driving tracking stuff insurance companies try to get you to use, to save you money. They are using it to find ways to raise your rates even if you do not have accidents or tickets. Got to love OnStar, charge you monthly for a service and then sell your data to double dip and make money from you. Keep your car dumb and fun.

"Is your car is selling your data?" Original title for this video lmao

Ha tricks on you, my 06 EVO 9 doesn't have this technology!

As someone who works in the field of big data, i can tell you right now to stay away from onstar and similar services. Also, You should check your phones permissions and system permissions every time they roll out a "security" update, they tend to reset the ones you changed or hide them under different processes. You have no idea how much data they are collecting through that phone until you see it for yourself...

I wonder if you could modify these cars to get rid of the spying, like cutting off power to the data collection computer, or removing the antennas that send the data

Then there’s the OnStar calls during a corvette track test...

Next question...is 🍩 media spying on me too? 😂

And this is why I am sticking to driving my 06 STi. It's fast, fun, and doesn't sell me out.

That is why i love my 1998 Honda Civic. Does not have a gps, just a plain old radio. Manual locks, manual windows, no radar cruise.

What does Donut Media do with my personal information???🤔

So my Subaru is secretly leading a double life!!!!!!!!

Watches Video 'Peaks out of my window and stares at my 2010 VW Golf' Hmmm... Golfy looking real shady now 🤔

Timestamp 5:45:" this shake weight scene killed me"🤣

Who else remembers that mr wolf drove a freggin NSX?!

I dont even have power windows, locks, or power steering lol Nobody is getting my data!

9:03 when your mom wants to check your search history

Wow this video is done extremely well very well-researched and excellent infographics!!!🤩🤩🤩 Put out more videos that have new interesting information😍😍😍

Starts suspecting Ubers ya damn Hondas n Toyotas

Flex seal: That’s a lot of damage Facebook: That’s a lot of data

Thank you so much for closed captions. :)

Awesome job. Thus only really was brought home in a fun and exciting way, making me want to know more. Keep it coming.

THAT'S ALOTTA DATA

**CHINESE GOVERNMENT WANTS TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION**

Wow Nolan! Such a command of the screen! Thank you.

Do a video on how the "Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS) cash for clunkers) program negatively affected the auto industry depending on those old cars. 1. Secondary auto parts industry especially shops that refurbashed parts. So many cars were traded in so fast that alternators, engine blocks, heads and such ended up getting crushed instead of saved. Those same parts suppliers lost a lot of there customer base that got new cars instead of continuing to fix there old one. 2. Auto repair business that lived off older cars that did not have the training and equiptment to fix new cars lost potential customers with fewer old cars to fix and no money to upgrade equiptment and train mechanics. 3. Drastically increased the price of older cars for collectors even the common cars or ones that were not collected cars before making say a odd ones like 76 Z28 or even 86 IROC out of reach for the tinkering fast food worker and only available to the wealthy.

We are currently living in digital prison, AI is already involved too much in our lives.

Bring Back "Prestado"! And Make Donut Great Again!

Nolan just gets better and better

5:55 lol shake weight "I'm not even gonna do that on camera" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

I don't have to worry about this because I own a 1998 Subaru and a 2000 Mercury.

so what your saying is my 1994 Chevy s-10 has been spying on me for all these years?

I've had my '03 super duty for 10 years and I love the fact it doesn't beep at me when I back up or it only has numbers of the time and radio station on my radio 3 inch screen. But by my own hand I will still be driving it in 10 years mostly because it has the options I want and new vehicles don't have anything close.

Hey Nolan! I got my mom to watch Wheelhouse and now she’s hooked! She’s now binging Wheelhouse

Welp, time to remove some weight off my car ;)

Demand for EVERY vehicle pre-1996 just went up. Coincidentally, I'm looking as well. #FuckOBDII

Information is power. People willingly continue to give powerful companies all the info they can. The more info you let out, the less power you have.

I now 100% understand why my homie drives a 1972 GMC, smart bastard.

All my 300ZX TT is spying on me about is how much cash I have in my pocket for more parts.

*looks at my truck collection of a 68 Datsun 520, 75 Datsun 620, 95 Nissan Hardbody and Bagged 96 Nissan Hardbody* I THINK I'm safe...

this video makes me feel even happier about driving an old car 😊

I look forward to this show so much every week. I always find something/somebody else to hate. I wonder if my '07 Fusion collects anything? I feel like it's kinda old.

Does an 1885 Benz Patent Motorwagen spy on me?

Will they know if I am speeding tho,and can that be used against me on my insurance(and in general)which I'm pretty sure they WILL know!? 🤔🤨

One of your best videos to date

About 15 seconds in it felt like an Express VPN add.... I wasn’t wrong

Cant we locate those wifi thingy bingy and just remove it?

I always wear my tinfoil hat while driving

Love the KoRn image!!

I Love your Easter egg putting KORN in there my friend

With the Knight Industries Two Thousand, your car will do the spying... *_for you!_*

we can never be offline these days

Aliens: WHAT PEOPLE ARE SPYING ON US!?!?!? My response: YEAH NO SH*T!

We only got recently a system in our new cars here in the EU that does emergency calls in case of a crash. It is mandated by law to be on for new cars sold after a certain year. However due to cost tied to it (consumers don’t pay for the service) most manufacturers only include the mandatory functions to meet requirements and they aren’t getting the data but the government branches that operate the system. Only a few manufacturers do include further functions where they actually get data as it is send to a different (their) server. I have such a car. I‘ve read the manual, it doesn’t state that the car is able and the licensed seller (brands sell the right to sell their brand to companies and those companies aren’t allowed to sell other brands in the same building, even if related like VW and Audi) didn’t know either about it. I had used a VPN to download the App of the manufacturer to access the data and showed it to them. Only then did they believe me and we went to sit in my car with the chef mechanic and the owner of the dealership, going through a laptop linked to my car. It took us 15minutes to actually find the enhanced abilities of the system and another 15min to activate them. The system is by default deactivated (the not mandatory parts that share data with the manufacturer) and I had to read some pages (which I did) before being asked if I agree. It was listed in detail what they collect, where it is stored and for how long and even who within the manufacturer has access (quite limited) due to our strict data privacy laws. I had to leave a digital signature which was send to the manufacturer and is stored in the cars computing unit before the laptop received an encryption key to activate the system. As we noticed, it can’t be activated remotely and the activation request takes over 24hrs (I assume they are checked by a human). After that, I went with the owner into his office and he did call the manufacturers head office (responsible for 3 European countries) why no one was told about the cars functions and the person on the phone was also not aware that the car can do it. Now, 8 months later has a mention of the system appeared on the website (for 3 countries) and that people can ask their dealership to activate it. I guess if US citizens rally for better data protection, they could also get great service without being unknowingly tracked.

Starts suspecting from my horse.

What’s my Ford Explorer hiding from me. 👀

Oh Nolan, I haven't cried by laughing in long time 😂.

Love the shirt Nolan!

holy S#@t my 1988 dodge Dakota is selling my data!!! i would of never guessed...wait how do they know im thicc if my truck never came with airbags CONSPIRACY

Car Magazines have been talking about this for years.. just sayin. Oh yeah, ah there like skinny books.. with writing inside.. about stuff..

Yes on Star has its ups and downs but the main primary is that in case you get into a car wreck or if you're vehicle gets stolen it's easily and quickly found. I have it as a peace of mind

What else is new, they take all our information as is anyway. What really sucks is that we don't get a cut. My concern is if your car will snitch on you like say if you're a bit of a Leadfoot it's snitches to your insurance company and your rates go up. By the way Nolan, great video 😀😁😋👍

by 2025 the Government will tax the use of old cars

Lol this video was uploaded 6 minutes ago but comments were uploaded 12 or 11 minutes ago.

3:48 reducing... admissions? Oh Nolan :)

love that ufo shirt, it's so... related, i think

Doubt it. I still drive an 83 oldsmobile cutlass and 69 caprice. Muhhahah

Make an up to speed on the Plymouth fury

Remember when smart TVs were caught uploading not only voice commands, but everything being said? I would be willing to bet at least some cars out there are uploading everything you say in your car and that the cops are customers for a lot of the speed and location data.

Love the korn shout out
