GM to Shed Five North American Plants, Numerous Products, Amid Restructuring Drive

Heavy-duty streamlining has reached the production level at General Motors. After last night’s bombshell (though not unexpected) report claiming Canada’s oldest auto plant would cease operations late next year, more news is trickling out about the automaker’s production future.

Add Ohio and Michigan to the list of locales expected to lose an assembly plant.

Kwi65728132 Nothing surprising here, give a company an inch and they'll take a mile (and your data)...If it bothers someone that their "connected" car is spying on them then maybe they should make a tin foil hat for their car, or buy an older car without connected tech or old enough that the connected tech can no longer phone home due to that generation of cellular service being turned off; my 2014 Hyundai is no longer connected as 3G service has been turned off as of last year and so far, car manufacturers have not clued in on the idea of a common interface standard for cellular modems so upgrades in wireless service would be plug and play.Not that being able to remotely start your car from 10,000 miles away was a smart idea anyway.
Dartman Blah blah blah. Methinks some people doth protest too much; hiding something? If it really bothers you so much follow John Prine’s sage advice: “Blow up your TVThrow away your paperGo to the (another?) countryBuild you a homePlant a little gardenEat a lot of peachesTry an' find Jesus on your own"
Bd2 Please highlight the styling differences.
ToolGuy @Matt, not every post needs to solve *ALL* the world's problems.As a staunch consumer advocate, you might be more effective by focusing on one issue at a time and offering some concrete steps for your readers to take.When you veer off into all directions you lose focus and attention.(Free advice, worth what you paid for it, maybe even more.)
FreedMike What this article shows is that there are insufficient legal protections against unreasonable search and seizure. That’s not news. But what are automakers supposed to do when presented with a warrant or subpoena – tell the court to stuff it in the name of consumer privacy? If the cops come to an automaker and say, “this kid was abducted by a perv who’s a six time loser on the sex offender list and we need the location of the abductor’s car,” do they say “sorry, Officer, the perv’s privacy rights have to be protected”?This is a different problem than selling your data.
