🗣️ This is for all new internet connected cars

A new study has found that your car likely knows more about you than your mom. That is disconcerting, but what’s even more so is what is being done with your information. It’s all about the Benjamins. Our private information is being collected and sold.

The Mozilla Foundation, a non-profit that studies internet and privacy issues, studied 25 car manufacturers. And it found every manufacturer sold in America poses a greater risk to your privacy than any device, app or social media platform.

Our cars are rolling computers, many of which are connected to the internet collecting information about how you drive and where. New cars also have microphones and sensors that give you safety features like automatic braking and drowsy driver detection. Those systems are also providing information. Got GPS or satellite radio? Then your car likely knows your habits, musical and political preferences.

Did you download your car’s app which gives you access to even more features? Well that also gives your car access to your phone and all the information on it.

The study found that of the 25 car brands, 84% say they sell your personal data.

And what they collect is astounding.

One example the study sites is KIA’s privacy policy. It indicates the company collects information about your sexual activity. I initially didn’t believe it until I pulled KIA’s privacy policy and read it. And it’s right there in black and white. It says it collects information about your “ethnicity, religious, philosophical beliefs, sexual orientation, sex life, or political opinions.

And it says it can keep your info for “as long as is necessary for the legitimate business purpose set out in this privacy notice.”

Translation: Nissan can keep your information as long as they want to. And more than half of the manufacturers (56%) say they will share your information with law enforcement if asked.

Kia PV5 WKNDR Concept, 2024. A camper prototype baed on the PV5 electric van that was presented at this year's SEMA show. The modular design means that during the week you can drive your five-passenger electric van, then at the weekend you can install the module focused on relaxation and leisure including a roof tent with solar panels

One night, I had this idea for Ashrah's (and Kia's, Jataka's and Sareena's) mother. I just wanted to sketch her out to the best of my ability. The 2nd picture is... I dunno. I was just imagining Liu Kang talking to her somehow... (idk if he has the power to enter that level of the Netherrealm, though I imagine him doing it via astral projection or something like that.)

I'm trying to establish a solid style for my personal project The Reaching Isles. Mainly backgrounds and how lighting affects the characters!

Ladies and gentlemen:

The Sisterhood of Shadows! 🎸🎶

I cannot be the only one who thought they would make a sickass band while watching MK Legends: Cage Match!

I hate that they are just jobbers there, but I LOVE their rockstar desings!

🎹 Sareena definitely has my favourite design! Her outfit is so pretty and messy curls fit her so well and they were so much fun to make!

🎸 And y'all know I'm a curly Jataaka believer so I brought the queen's crown back! Her outfit fits the vibes I usually give her so I dig it!

🥁 Kia's hair was pretty fun so I kept it, and her outfit though simple was so stylish, I really like it!

And I know Cage Match set up Sareena to be the the main lead, and that's cool and she was pretty badass, buuuuuuut, I think even Sareena herself will agree Jataaka is the true main lead of this band! 👑

I wanted to try a different style, I hope y'all like it!

Let's be real, the are MK's Hex Girls! 🖤

As you guys have attested to, my pickup has been an endless source of problems for the last year or so, from the broken axle, to the broken clutch, the clutch’s hydraulic system, the radiator, the AC, the rear suspension, the alternator, the alternator belt, the joints of the axel, the wiper fluid motor, the light switch, the battery, and just last week, the turning lights indicator.

So

I sold that fucker and bought myself a little Kia Picanto hatchback! It’s a 2019 model, so not as old as my 2012 pickup, it’s actually in really nice condition, and the owner recently send it for maintenance at the Kia concessionaire, so it’s as good as it’s going to get, plus it was effectively a trade off, since I successfully negotiated for the money I had when I sold the Nissan.

I could had sell it for more and actually have some spare cash for fucking once, but I was sick and tired of dealing with bullshit, and really, the rise of gas prices was already hurting my pocket really bad, that pickup spend this whole 2025 without more than half a tank of gas, so I sold it to the first bidder who didn’t mind the electrical issue nor the cosmetic damage all over it, since those pickups are really desirable for construction work, and people in that job don’t mind scratches nor patches of missing paint hehe.

So yeah, I’m going to miss driving above the peons in their little cars, but man am I not going to miss the feeling of dread whenever the gas light turned on, or whenever a random new noise indicated that something had gone wrong again.

It was a fun car, but it’s time to move on, I don’t need money pits anymore, especially now that I plan to have kids.

I salute you my old Nissan, may you not torture your new owner like you did with me 🫡

Asia Towner Coach, 1992. A badge engineered version of the Daihatsu Hijet that was made by Asia Motors, a subsidiary of Kia. The cab-over design meant the engine was positioned under the front seats (see photograph). Asia Motors was defunct by 1999 when it fully merged with Kia.

Kia is absolutely shocked at this revelation
