Typing a password slows you down, so now you'll need to enter a 2fa and a password. Fucking brilliant!

Our 2yo Crosstrek has no starlink. No LTE. No wifi. Is it leaking our location via tachyons?

    It likely does have a 4g connection just one you're not also allowed to piggyback on since you didnt get the higher trim or add-on package which changes a single bit in the firmware from a 0 to 1 allowing you to use it too.

    As a rule of thumb, if your car model is approved for sale in the EU after 2017, it most likely has tracking in it. And post-2021, it almost definitely has it.

    Sure, it's possible that they have a different model specifically for the non-EU market, but they still usually have the same modules installed... your data is valuable, especially in countries where they don't need to care as much about privacy laws.
