At the risk or being labeled a paranoid whacko, it is a privacy thing for me.
I work in the technology world, and I see abuses of information and access all of the time. I wouldn't get a TiVo for the same reason. The contracts for OnStar and Tivo are very similar - the service provider has the right to access their hardware and download any information that they want.
On the older OnStar, I would have just yanked the VCU to prevent access to the data, but now the cell and black box are one unit.
Thanks for the response.
