Happy Canada Day - From BMW

I was greeted with this little vid from BMW this morning on the iDrive:




Nice gesture...but I have mixed feelings.

It’s not representative of Canada since the road wasn’t blocked by protesters.

I guess you guys are special. Nothing for me. I am not complaining about it.

First, when and how did they download this vid file to my car?

What else are they downloading without my knowledge?

There seems to be no way to prevent unauthorized downloads?

If they're downloading files without my knowledge, what data are they uploading to their servers without my knowledge or approval?

I avoided Tesla as I felt they were too intrusive....seems it's unavoidable?

For the Canucks that may have missed BMW's Canada Day Vid, check out your apps...found this little easter egg in the app listing.
