You can use a Privacy card with any name you want on it although some small vendors with actual people running the purchase process can read and take issue when the "card" is supposedly issued to a "Mybig Blackdog"

There is also an option in Settings to "Always show the number row"

That was just COVID-19. Wait until COVID-21 (or whatever) and a larger chunk of groomed idiocy will disappear

It'd be cool if you could tap into the OBD2 dongle and find what its criteria is that denotes "rapid accelerations" or "hard braking" and them reprogram it to dampen that curve and never report more than maybe 5% less than what would trigger an acceleration or braking flag

Very true, I was focusing more on the story's driver being "surprised" and "stunned" by the amount of data collected and that all that date didn't convince an Insurance Company's algorithm he was a driver worthy of paying them less than his current premium. I expect upwards of 90% of drivers would be stunned as well that they are not as good of a driver as they imagine and that "I've never having an accident" doesn't carry as much weight with the algorithm as they might have hoped.
