You know, I've often thought about that being possible to listen in without us knowing, and it would be creepy for sure. I'm not sure if that's just not one of those Internet-created legends. That would be totally illegal and I think the thought of the resulting lawsuits would preclude them from even thinking about doing that. I would imagine that every owner of a GM car would get in on the winning end of one humongous class-action suite that would take down GM as well as On Star, and I would hope that they wouldn't risk something like that just to find that me and some friends were chatting about the good old days or our last poker game, or my wife and I were talking about our grandkids or what we needed at the grocery store.
I would really hope that this was a rumor started by the same people that started the one about all cell phone numbers were going to be released to telemarketers. I really would lose faith in the business world if this was true, and you're right, I'd rip it out, right before I call my lawyer. :o
