As a motorcyclist... Yeah.

I used to dream of watching a movie then falling asleep in bed while my car drove the 8 hours to my folks' house.

But I'd want that beast to be bristling with sensors of every kind. None of this "cameras only" idiocy.

Unless they've received notification to that effect. "Hey, y'all, we're considering anti-trust so save that shit."

It's illegal if antitrust action is anticipated, according to the article. That said, I know that most places I've worked have had a document retention policy that called for automatic deletion of most documents after some time period, like a year.
