with all the new tech that they are installing in vehicles, I suppose this shouldn't be a surprise... but had you heard that Ford has just patented a biometric data scan that runs the info through a criminal database? What are the ramifications? I leave it to you to guess (Thank you George!)

And keep in mind, I'm not out to freak you out, I am keeping you informed of the fact that mistakes have been made in identification, often, based on the databases with mistakes in them. Also, most people who have used Facebook are aware there are a lot of people with the same name. I will guess, there are people with the same biometric data too. 

Do with this, whatever you want. Me, I plan on not ever buying a car with too much tech. I only want a back up camera, and blutooth phone to infotainment center connectivity. And I can install a back up camera, I've done it before. 

You probably heard that Washington lawmakers are trying to pass a law about getting the manufacturers to install a kill switch in new made vehicles so law enforcement controls their operation. 

We are all aware that cell phones are recording your location and audio, constantly, and making that info available to federal law enforcement and car insurance companies. 

So, while most people won't be inconvienced by "big brother" nosing into everything, all those who don't want to be spied on have to do is leave the phone at home and drive an old car without electronics.

And if movies are an indication of what's to come, chose an old car that doesn't have electronic ignition, to prevent an EMP offensive weapon from blowing the IC chips and disabling the ignition.
