A widely shared German-language post claims Tesla collects extensive data from its vehicles, including via the in-car voice assistant, and can leave owners' cars immobilised if they do not comply. The post taps into ongoing concerns in Europe about connected-car data practices and GDPR compliance, with users debating how much information Tesla gathers and what control drivers really have.
