      Lol. They were trying their damndest to get me and my family to install that. I’m like… there’s a bit of a conflict of interest there. I can see some value in having location data of your family, who’s driving too fast, if someone’s in an accident. I will absolutely not be sharing that data with the company that earns money for its shareholders by outperforming the statistical likelihood of paying me money, by finding every way possible to not pay me money.
