Your car is SPYING on you — and it’s only going to get worse



If you thought your personal property was private, then you might not have read the agreement you signed when you purchased it — and this is especially true when it comes to your vehicle.

Car expert Lauren Fix is sounding the alarm, explaining that in the infrastructure bill of 2021, “there’s a kill switch law.”

“That kill switch law allowed them to listen in your car, to monitor your eyes, to literally track all of your information,” Fix tells Hilary Kennedy and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.”

“And what are they doing with that information?” She continues, “We know that manufacturers are hurting financially. We see a lot of cars sitting on lots, and as long as prices keep getting higher, their profit margins are shrinking.”


So they sell the data to places like insurance companies and the police department.

“Then, just recently Ford decided to create a patent that would sell all your information directly to the police department so that they wouldn’t have to go through some sort of contract,” Fix explains, adding, “Which, again, is a violation of our privacy and really infuriates me.”

While Americans are right to be infuriated, the problem is that they do disclose this information in the paperwork — which almost no one actually reads.

“It’s going to get worse because in 2026, all cars are going to have a kill switch in them,” Fix says. “That’s going to tell whether you’re under the influence of something by the start/stop button.”

“Is all of this perfectly legal?” Peterson asks, concerned.

“Well, it actually probably isn’t. But we sign those agreements,” Fix says.

Dems pass new law requiring a 'kill switch' in all new vehicles sold after 2026



Hidden within a 1,039-page law that passed when the Democrats had the majority in the House of Representatives is a provision for a “kill switch” in all new vehicles after 2026.

Democrats seemed unaware that they had passed this new provision, so Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) had to read the law directly to them.

The provision states that it will “passively monitor the performance of a driver of a motor vehicle to accurately identify whether that driver may be impaired and prevent or limit motor vehicle operation if an impairment is detected.”

“In other words, they have mandated that there be technology in every new vehicle sold after 2026 that evaluates your driving performance, gives you a scorecard while you’re driving, and if you fail, it will disable the vehicle and put you on the side of the road,” Massie tells Glenn Beck.

Massie believes that this technology is going to create thousands of false positives.

“Let’s say you’re a mom and you’ve got kids in the car, and you’ve pulled over twice onto the shoulder to let emergency vehicles go by, and then you swerved once for a deer, and now you make your final, you know, correction, and boom, the car says, ‘Okay, we’re the judge and the jury.’”

Glenn notes that even OnStar, whose facility he toured once, also had the technology to disable a car.

“I talked to the head of OnStar, and he said ‘Yeah, we can pretty much disable your car,” Glenn tells Massie.

“That doesn’t sound like a good thing.”

This law would allow the car's technology to decide whether you have the right to travel or not, which is why Massie offered an amendment to this law.

“I offered an amendment to defund this rule, this law, and you know, I’ve been here 11 years. I lower my expectations for my colleagues every year. And it’s still not low enough, because my amendment did not pass,” Massie says.

Massie believes that the most insidious problem with this technology is that it will have “far more false positives, and it will crush your liberties.”

“My only hope here, Glenn, is that this technology they want is so ridiculous that they will put off the mandate once they realize they can’t do it. That’s my hope,” he adds.
