Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's lawsuit against General Motors alleges the company illegally collected and sold drivers' data without their consent, deceiving customers in the process.
The lawsuit highlights how General Motors used new technology to collect, record, analyze, and transmit detailed driving data from vehicles since 2015, often without drivers' knowledge.
The AG's complaint emphasizes that despite GM promoting programs like OnStar Smart Driver, they misled customers about the data collection, leading them to unknowingly consent to data sales.
With many states working to fill the gaps in federal data privacy laws, GM is the first car manufacturer to face legal repercussions for allegedly exploiting this issue.
