Fake ID is always an issue for many reasons.Military ,was the first to have rfid.I dont see that as a problem.
Cash isn't banned .the apps on your phone can pay ,purchase, banking which I do all can be online.as far as a star the dhs required act is a contraversy,the idea which liberal states don't want is to weed out the fake ids.
On star is old.the stores I use have manually entered the card,i can purchase using my rfid chipped card,my wallet is a jammer,as my wife has a purse that dies it.Fake ID is always an issue for many reasons.
My bank doesn't issue anything but the chip debit/credit cards. One thing about those is that the chip looks just like the chip in my cell phone. And that chip is what pings on cell towers as a tracking device.
Google has a fixture, "find my phone". Though I would think anyone that knows a cell number could take advantage.
I watched a law and order program not long ago where a woman helped detectives solve her sisters murder using that Google program. Tracking the killer as they disposed of her sisters body and still carried her cell phone with them in the process.
It's odd to think we can be tracked. But imagine that card chip on your debit or credit card. I've had my chip fail and I'm unable to buy anything because the card reader doesn't read it. The cashier in many stores isn't allowed to enter the card numbers themselves by hand. Which is strange because if there was an issue with the card those numbers would cause the alert or flag to show in that transaction.
And the new cars coming out all have tracking devices in them. Even the option to be monitored for a fee. On-Star, etc...
On star goes back to the 90s,early 90s.it's a fee type system but is never truly offI thought On-Star was the standard in Cadillac.
I had a friend that had an eel skin wallet. They found it had deactivated the strip on their credit card after being in the wallet for a few days.
There are security wallets I've seen that insure people can't scan people's RFID chips when passing by so as to steal their information. That's brilliant.
That's true. A few years ago On-Star advertised their service with a commercial featuring a customer who had been carjacked. The On-Star audio voice of the woman was giving details to the customer as the camera followed their stolen car. The commercial basically told you they can control the driving of your car, as they pulled the stolen car to the shoulder of the road. They can control its speed, acceleration. This they showed as the car slowed down to pull to the shoulder.On star goes back to the 90s,early 90s.it's a fee type system but is never truly off
I had my cc skimmed a few months ago, and I learned a few things about that new chip.Fake ID is always an issue for many reasons.

Illegal doesn't mean someone won't .I can watch my house via my vIvint system.In my Cruise and Silverado, all the doors can be unlocked by pulling the door lever twice, so they can't lock anyone in lol! Unless your in the back seat and have the manual child locks on.
OnStar does not monitor conversations, that's just crazy talk, and it's against the law.
If your car is stolen, they will locate the car with GPS, which is something I myself can do with my phone. They call the police and work with the police to coordinate slowing the vehicle down to a complete stop. So yes. They can remotely control your throttle and brakes. I am unsure of the steering on all models.
Yes, there are deep concerns with hacking, and there are stiff controls both in the way of hardware and software to prevent that.
It wont ne GM. Could you imagine the government fines, jail time etc. Not to mention bad press. It would be the end of the company.Illegal doesn't mean someone won't .I can watch my house via my vIvint system.

That can't happen without you knowing it with OnStar.Employees break rules,or like Alexa listen to sell for advertising

They traced a criminal with a deactivated OnStar here.he drove a car aND ruined a soccer field, the owner said it had OnStar but wasn't in use,(active) GM was subpeoned abd the teen was charged.That can't happen without you knowing it with OnStar.
Tracking a vehicle with its integrated gps isn't the same as activating the voice commands and GM wont give any information to law officials without a court in certain cases.They traced a criminal with a deactivated OnStar here.he drove a car aND ruined a soccer field, the owner said it had OnStar but wasn't in use,(active) GM was subpeoned abd the teen was charged.
