Even George Orwell never thought of spying cars.

Not going to happen for me! I love mt 2010 Peugeot and it should see me out. With a husband for a mechanic, what more do I need? I have never paid for a mechanic in my life and he will keep our cars going until we no longer need them. Also, who can afford a new one anyway?

That’s a lesson. My phone told me the other day that I was walking more slowly than usual and that I was in danger of a fall. I had a fall 8 weeks ago with a fractured vertebrae ensuing- of course I am walking more slowly!!! At least I am walking! I told it to go away and it was just a machine. Yesterday it told me I was doing better!!! As for a dobbing car!!

Some years ago my granddaughter was demonstrating Siri to me, we were in her mother's car and she said something that I can't remember, but Siri said "that wasn't nice", so granddaughter said "I love you Siri" and the response was "I love you too". I do not have Siri turned on any device in my house, but I do know something is listening because I can mention something and next thing I am getting heaps of ads about that subject!

So true. We are being spied on. I have a Google thing and try to remember to turn it off because the same thing happens.

My old Ford Territory is not dobbing in anyone. It knows if it does it's straight to the wreckers.
