General Motors halts data broker sharing

The New York Times reports General Motors is no longer sharing driver data with LexisNexis Risk Solutions and Verisk after the paper reported on the practice. Many drivers said they did not know the data was being shared and then sold to insurance companies, which used the data to increase premiums. CNBC reports connected cars are increasingly becoming a privacy risk. Editor's note: New York Times reporter Kashmir Hill will be a keynote speaker at the IAPP Global Privacy Summit 2024.
