Cars are no longer dumb machines -- They're smart devices with hundreds of computers bolted on top that collect information about our activities. Some car companies have even explicitly said in their privacy policies that they collect information about your sexual activity!
Given that so much information is stored in our car, what happens when we sell it? Do we just hand this sensitive information off to the next owner? And given the remote capabilities of modern cars, how do we make sure the previous owner can't still access our data when we buy a used car?
Here are steps you MUST take when you buy or sell a used car.
