Texas AG sues General Motors for illegally collecting and selling driver data without consent.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against General Motors, accusing the carmaker of illegally collecting and selling drivers' data without their consent or knowledge. The lawsuit alleges that GM used technology in car models from 2015 onwards to collect, record, analyze, and transmit driving data, which was then sold to other companies, including those that generated "Driving Scores" for insurance companies. This marks the first state enforcement action against an automaker for data privacy sales.
