Talk:Toyota Vehicle Telemetry: Difference between revisions

I'm not fangirling, I'm speaking from experience. The summary of what this guy has written seems to be, Toyota may or may not save data for long periods of time, and when challenged don't appear to have the data to hand.

I, for one, am willing to put my mouth where my vehicle is, or my vehicle where my mouth is, and state that my UK Urban Cruiser MK1 1.4D4D 2011 Registered 6-Speed Manual has been personally searched by myself and several Pen Testers and the only comms and telemetry devices were my own. I have discussed these issues with Toyota myself and they clearly state that I own my car and may modify as I please within the law. I even have various softwares to change behaviours, like my smart entry system (which no longer opens the passenger rear door with the rest since there is no seat there, just a computer). | I, for one, am willing to put my mouth where my vehicle is, or my vehicle where my mouth is, and state that my UK Urban Cruiser MK1 1.4D4D 2011 Registered 6-Speed Manual has been personally searched by myself and several Pen Testers and the only comms and telemetry devices were my own.

I don't know if this is the proper way to reply. The article should be probably deleted as nobody looked into it, and from the Toyota website (https://www.toyota.com/privacyvts/) seems like nothing problematic is going on. The telemetry is present, but the data collection is possible to disable (don't know if they require you to opt in or out). Also note that your personal experience is not relevant to the wiki, if your older Toyota doesn't have telemetry it does not ensure that it is not present in newer model.
