No one is reporting this, ford certainly isn't putting it in their press material, and no one gets a copy of the manual to review before purchasing a vehicle.
To be fair, you can look it up on their website The fact that this is something you have to consider now when buying a car is ridiculous though…
Right but this is not an issue that's in the public consciousness yet. No one thinks to read the manual or go to the website and check on how their privacy is going to be invaded by a fuckin car.
This shit is infuriating.

No one reads and understands it before they buy, but it's out there
