and the first instance they get caught narcing someone out they will loss 1/2 million subscribers in the first week.

Problem is that OnStar recinded the changes due to customer complaints.

GunnyG · 02-15-2012, 10:46 AM

OnStar, iTunes, Google - they're all evil. Tracking to sell you something later, to narc on you. Shameful, but we tolerate it.

midnighter · 02-15-2012, 10:48 AM

Say no to OnStar. We already have enough watch dogs in the sky.

Frank in MD · 02-15-2012, 10:56 AM

and here we go again.

Not only will Onstar rat you out to the cops, they'll also beat up your kids and take their milk money.

I've also heard that they'll make a move on your wife!

What next? I bet Onstar teams up w/ veterinarians to put tracking chips in your pets and rat them out to the pound!

I agree. I'd rip that damn box out and beat it with a sludge hammer.

Really who cares. Don't use it then, you have that option. But please people why do you continue to post on here the negative things about onstar? If you don't like it then don't use it. How much more simple can that be?

Because posting negative things on the internet anonymously is fun, esp. when they aren't around to defend themselves. /sarcasm

You new here?

The article is blocked here at work (I'd be interested to see what it says), but if it was about them giving away your info whether you're a subscriber or not, that is over they rescinded that.
