I believe big bro and big sis have that all under control. They can get
the data remotely and can take the box from your vehicle when there is a
crash (4th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America
is inop in these situations, apparently).
(I do sometimes wonder how the remover would deal with a nice spring
trap up under the dash, as I heard about people affixing to their
vehicles when the theft of CB radios was rampant.)
No need to worry though, it is for your own good.

With the modern tech in cars being totally connected everything, data

broadcasting codes for repair purposes. I have no idea how that might
be useful, but similar to onstar the malfunction could be seen prior
to arrival at shop, for whatever reason. The stupid tech already
broadcasts where the car is located, why not broadcast data regarding
operations and potential system failure issues? Again, for what
useful benefit, I don't know, but it seems that the broadcast could
include data nobody needs... just because... Not unlike most of the
other 'tech' in modern cars. Why do I need to punish a data bus with
road grime, rattle, heat, etc? It all seems superfluous - I drive a
1984 240D with 3 pedals and crank windows. I dunno...
