    I bought a car. I’m trying to get Toyota to stop sending telemetry. I call support. They tell me I can just sign in with the app and make changes.

    I point out that installing and using the app binds me to terms and conditions, one of which is binding arbitration. So I will not be installing the app.

    No, no. The customer service agent confidently contradicts me. You don’t sign a contract by installing the app. It’s just like making a Facebook or google account.

    🤦🏻

        @paco Wow. I'm team toyota, but that's ridiculous. And for the agent to not understand that no, you absolutely DO sign a contract when you make ANY account.... yikes.

                  @paco Does the Rav4 have a modem? Like my Honda—it will pop up a privacy message every time I start the car, but it can’t actually send data anywhere on its own—it relies on your phone, and that in turn requires you to have installed their app. So I just never installed the app. Did have to yell at the dealer until they agreed to remove the aftermarket KARR device that had a GPS in it though.

                          @paco I bought a used Kia Soul EV. No doubt Kia are taking its every move but I haven't registered it with them or enabled the Kia app so I hope they can't track me personally. However, as it was bought from a used car place not a Kia dealer I had it serviced and checked over by an official dealer before the warranty ran out. So I suppose they might have notified Kia HQ about the new owner?

                                  @paco er, why would you expect some magic solution from some overworked and underpaid first-line support person? Go and cut the cable if your new car (that I assume you chose?) is sending telemetry.

                                      I bought a car. I’m trying to get Toyota to stop sending telemetry. I call support. They tell me I can just sign in with the app and make changes.

                                      I point out that installing and using the app binds me to terms and conditions, one of which is binding arbitration. So I will not be installing the app.

                                      No, no. The customer service agent confidently contradicts me. You don’t sign a contract by installing the app. It’s just like making a Facebook or google account.

                                          If ordinary people don't even realize they're signing a contract, then the contract is arguably legally invalid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meeting_of_the_minds
