Gaurav Vikash Asks: Are Our Cars Spying on Us?

In this episode, cybersecurity expert Gaurav Vikash discusses the privacy risks associated with smart cars and connected vehicles. As vehicles become more technologically advanced, they are equipped with features that collect and transmit user data, ranging from voice recordings to health information. Gaurav emphasises that many consumers remain unaware of the extent of data collection in modern vehicles, falsely assuming their privacy is protected like in traditional cars. He discusses industry practices, including Tesla's case where their app was used for stalking, and highlights the lack of comprehensive regulations, urging for better awareness and legal protections.
