[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The old advice was about Bluetooth and usb pairing where your contacts were downloaded into the car so it could display names and numbers. Modern cars have a proprietary interface for CarPlay where it basically acts as an external screen for your phone, I’m pretty sure it’s fairly secure interface and no worse than going on public WiFi? The one concern I would have is and wiring from a beat up rental and getting higher voltage or a short from a dodgy USB and frying phone. [/quote] Public WiFi is pretty risky, don’t touch it without a vpn. I think it’s safe to assume that anything you share with your car is also shared with the car manufacturer. It’s up to you whether you care or not. Some do, the rest babble something about tin foil. [/quote]
