If you bought anything like this, you also bought an upgraded car alarm, preferably one with a flashing LED to let anyone know the car was armed. Or just a flashing decoy LED if you couldn't afford the alarm.

Now my car stereo just spies on me to sell my driving info to the insurance companies so they can raise my rates.

We peaked at this stereo. It has all been downhill since.
