Has anyone dug in to all the settings (or even possibilities) of turning off all autonomous Volvo access to the car, so it only connects back when I am notified and grant permission?
I am a privacy nerd, and a general nerd, so I want control when somebody wants data from me, and I don't want systems updates until I understand what they do and have approved them.
It doesn't need to stop the dealership from accessing anything or connecting it back to Volvo if I take it to them for service, I just want to control it while it is my possession.
I bought the car well out of warranty, and I didn't renew the remote start subscription (too expensive for what it was), so I don't have any need for them to be up in my business or messing with my car without my permission.
