If you’ve got privacy concerns, you might want to think twice about buying a Tesla.  “Every mile, every block, every inch of pavement driven by a Tesla vehicle generates a trove of information that can reveal as much about you as about your car,” according to Axios. Data collected includes your car's personal settings, such as contacts you've synced from your phone, addresses you've plugged into the navigation system, and even your favorite radio stations. It knows your speed, your mileage, and where and when you charge the battery. "Teslas are constantly in record mode, using cameras and other sensors to log every detail about what they encounter while driving, even when Autopilot is turned off," per Axios.
