and not before it was produced? press x to doubt they actually removed it... If there's no independent research and we can't have the CEO's own data, then take it with a big grain of salt
I'm not sure what you mean, but I meant you could no longer find the bit about collecting sex related data on the nissan site after mozilla made that article. I read some of them before and I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure I read that section, but when I shared the article with people it was gone from the car maker site by then.
If you have the url. Have you looked for it on the wayback internet archive?
Turns out this article is from 2023, but here you go - search the page for "sexual activity" and you'll find it
They’re saying that corps barely give a shit about the law and will continue doing the thing, only they will stop telling people they are doing it. Then when they get caught for doing still doing it they will say ‘oh no we are so sorry’ and pay the meaninglessly small fine attached to it. And then still continue to do the thing.
