This illustrates the scale and level of detail with which #Volkswagen spies on its customers. Their first reaction: lying that no sensitive information was leaked and the hack was sophisticated.

Have you noticed how the hacks are always "sophisticated" when a company is emberassed? 😋

Right, if this attack was too sophisticated then Volkswagen was too incompetent to hold on to this data in the first place.

Well, I mean, they never say that it was an easy hack. 😅

Zooming in on one customer, Volkswagen tracks where they live, when they're home, when they work and at which hours. Hundreds of data points.

They could also triangulate employees of various secret (military) services.

😱

bastards

Another huge fuckup by our German industry dinosaurs. Doesn't surprise, but the scale of data collection actually makes you think

You're not alone!

They probably ran out of ideas what else they could track. Just another hint of how ridiculous the whole gdpr thing is. Datensparsamkeit 🤣

Ich hab da überhaupt kein Mitleid, selbst schuld wenn man solche Autos kauft und fährt. Sowas kommt mir nicht ins Haus.
