I'm thinking of buying a car. What is some advice? How do I maintain privacy in a modern car? (reddthat.com)

Context:

I don't want the car reporting to insurance hard breaks and such. But frankly I just find these things creepy and I just want a base model car.

I feel like a bigger indicator of being a "full person" is getting over fear/disgust of public transit. I know plenty of people who are more well-adjusted than I am who don't own a car.

That's like saying we shouldn't prefer nature and tranquility over street noise. I agree that we should be able to handle the situation but when given the choice, we should make a choice that makes us happy.

I have. The car makes me feel good. Life is just an experience. Have fun. :)
