The Texas Attorney General's office claims that 'most 2015 model year or newer GM vehicles' contain the invasive tech.

You know the saying: Don't mess with Texas. On Tuesday, August 13, the Lone Star State announced it is suing General Motors, accusing the brand of unlawfully collecting and selling private driving data to insurance companies. The accusation, which follows an official Texas investigation that began in June, covers a total of 16 million customers and 'most 2015 model year or newer GM vehicles.

' These numbers were taken into account when creating a 'driving score,' which the office says GM calculated for more than 16 million customers. These numbers could then be accessed directly by insurers.The Texas filing further accuses GM of gathering consent for the data-harvesting tools tied into its OnStar program through a 'highly misleading' collection of disclosures and other documents presented during the car sales process.
