OK - A last post before I bail on this thread since it is quickly going off-topic.
HummerNewbie is correct that everyone is entitled to their opinion. The fact is that most people are willing to trade the accumulation of their data for marketing purposes (within limits) in return for convenience or features.
For those that asked for more information, searching the web for TiVo or Onstar and privacy will get you lots of hits. Note that there is a lot of junk and rumors out there - don't beleive most of what you read. (For instance, I'm pretty sure that OnStar does NOT just open the mic in your vehicle to listen covertly)
Thanks for those that responded to the original question and I'm sorry if I fueled an off-topic discussion.
