Your link actually answers my question. They’re already in most cars, mine included. The data isn’t being transmitted to the government. The manufacturer would be able to access it, sure, but that’s nothing now. It also doesn’t mean that every car is going to have eye monitoring equipment - most of the cars that already have it don’t.
