I too really think the government is way too intrusive but keeping in mind that they only have so many people I know they can't track everyone all the time.....not even a small % can be watched that close.
On the ECU.....that isn't what records "event" like really hard cornering or barking, foot to the floor excelleration and so on. It the controller for the air bag system. And that only records the last few events.
I also keep in mind that how well a secret can be kept in directly proportional to the number of people who know it. A disgruntaled employee or someone who was canned can and will spill the beans real quick....if only to get their mug in the news for a few seconds.

And while I'm not impressed with the IQ level of a lot of government workers I don't think they are dumb enough to think they would be really helping national security out by only tracking GM ON STAR equiped cars and trucks.

To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
