BYD doesnt sell cars in the US according to the article so no, I don't think BYD is spying on you.
However that other post you're thinking of was possibly the one about the US manufacturers being forced to build in the spyware by the US govt...
Kinda the opposite to your direction of travel in tge post it seems to me ?
They don’t sell cars but they do sell their electric buses here. So at least are getting quieter buses.
They'll be selling BYD's in Canada very soon. I wonder how that will work if there is still a Canadian that needs to cross the border into the usa and ends up in donald trump's america? Will they let them pass? Will they confiscate the car?
I suspect that will depend on how brown the driver is...
