If anyone has any actual information, I’d appreciate it. Just based on the fact that it’s a Chinese automaker, though, I wouldn’t expect privacy to be very high on their list of priorities.
Criticism of China isn’t necessarily sinophobic. However being particularly concerned that a Chinese automaker is doing something most US automakers do might be. Especially when you consider that on an individual level it is less of a concern for Chinese companies to be tracking you then US companies. If you live in the US then local companies will gladly turn over information to authorities or shut off features for some reason. And to be fair I also think it would be better for a Chinese person to use a foreign for similar reasons.
To the extent that it is worth distinguishing between hatred of Jews and disllike of Israel’s policy towards Palestinian civilians, feel free of accusing me of following the “Israel playbook”
I agree - sinophobia is hateful and irrational. I just don’t trust the CCP not to force the company to play along with their surveillance plans, ya know?
How do they stack up for data privavcy? Are they continously connected to the cloud?

No, and I don’t want to be particularly sinophobic. But I’m generally very concerned about manufacturers’ post-sales controls over cars anyway.
Fucks sake. Criticism of China is not sinophobic.
Are we just copying the Israel playbook now?

I think that’s fair.
