Interesting although quite misleading.
"There are multiple, interconnected brains that can generate up to 25 gigabytes of data per hour from sensors all over the car."
"beaming back reports to its maker General Motors over an always-on Internet connection. "
It is scary that is collects and reports unknown data, but it sure as hell never reports anything remotely close to 25 GB of data per hour. The vast majority of that probably never even gets stored, it just gets fired around the bus for other computers to see.
"He’s seen German cars with 300-gigabyte hard drives "
As for hard drive capacity, is that available to the user for media storage or the car for data storage? If it is only option A, that is completely immaterial and just fear-mongering.
