It turns out that the “Internet of Things” is full of automated snoops and spies. Data collection, now integrated into new car designs, is more pervasive than ever and is ushering in a brave new world of surveillance and corporate collusion.

    Definitely a good idea if you are able. For people that have long commutes requiring driving on a freeway, it is probably not an option.

    Bikes are great! I ride mine as often as possible, but many trips are not possible with bikes, in the US.

      There are places in the US where you can if you’re lucky enough to move there and/or live close to work, but yeah, it’s a struggle for Americans to safely bike commute almost everywhere.

      Just move to a townhouse closer to your job… Oh wait… They tore them all down to build freeways and then made it illegal to build new ones…
