Oh, that’s common nowdays, as devices in olden days, now just insurers apps (depending on local laws it might only adjust your discounts, not base premium, but same diff). It predominantly lowers claims.

What isn’t common (afaik, that’s my question) is a third party doing that through general data brokering.
A bit like you driving badly on local news, the insurer sees that & ups your premium. It’s accepted with life insurance (bcs tos), but not really non-life car insurance. Idk tho, markets differ a lot.

I don’t like usa, I don’t even like mesa.

It’s totally unfair when the boss has more phases than my char has levels!!

Thank you Mr Skeleton of Git Gud, you have guided me my whole life, no reason to doubt you now!

I still remember how those mouse clicks & movement felt.

Well, in USA private companies do that all the time too bcs of the grip of the two-party system on private companies, eg it seems authorities have seamless access to Ring cameras.

I think that sort of thing is a given and part of your regular country risk. In most big countries it’s just a question how much the gov runs companies or the other way around.

But regulation can help a lot.
Eg EU could mandate a physical switch for wireless data (ie manufacturer) in cars.

… or you know, even mandatory foss or you-own-the-product-you-buy laws.

All car makers talk to insurers?
(I know they collect personal data.)

How often is it even legal for car insurance premiums (which is different from discounts) to change based on observed non-incident data (eg driving style) of an individual?

Firefox extensions allow for auto clicking no on those forms. Which I do want to exists.

GDPR is getting some changes & megacorps aren’t even actually adhering to it when it’s too good for them not to (eg MS cloud).

That is how humans would behave given the technology tho.

If he sold the same care multiple times in the same day the court has to legally recognise that was impressive.

The wheels on the cart go bomb-bomb-bomb-bomb …

So it doesn’t at all go into the direction you want, forcefully swerves you into oncoming traffic, but the wheels can’t seem to decide which lane exactly to pick.

Yes, everything will be a subscription service effectively killing foss & PCs.

Soon we will be illegally trading old PC hardware amongst ourselves until it eventually fails (which is only a few decades for the newer chips), hunted & persecuted by the matacorps.

It really takes away a lot of the gravity the meme is trying to portray, the implication of physical violence isn’t enough.

I fear wishful thinking, gaming consumers (demand) don’t wield such power over supply.

The format doesn’t work as well but lemmy try …

Perhaps …

Why not? It’s like next door the moon landing studio.
