It's horrifying, but the idea of a repo'd car simply driving itself back to the lender makes me giggle, I must admit.

fwiw, I remember a NPR piece about how abunch of 3rd party dealers already have gps and similar features on the cars they sell, nothing as extreme as Tesla but it is funny that the platonic idea of a shady used car salesman being less ____ than Tesla .

I don't think phone GPS is accurate enough to be tracking your movements around a supermarket in any useful way.

Yes, but the modern surveillance advertising state demands ever more ~~granularity~*. It's not enough to know you were on a webpage, we MUST know every single action you took on that webpage including eye tracking which I believe you will find I happen to have a handy dandy software patent for...

That's exactly what they do, except it's usually Bluetooth. Here's an intro-level NYT article on how it works; it's not perfect but it's accurate in all the broad strokes and most of the details.

Location tracking can pick up the things you chose not to buy, and even correlate things like "what percentage of people who walked by our display ended up buying the product?"

You could but it seems redundant when you have video of everyone and everything they do in the store.
