I read this article about a snazzy new device in cars that would work like EZ Pass to allow drivers to pay tolls and also allow cars to automatically pay parking meters and who knows, maybe even buy fast food at the drive through with the help of a small box attached to the vehicle.
But... what if the car is stolen? Not only do you lose a car (which, arguably you could find more easily through tracking purchases) but you also lose a credit card (of sorts) which would be stolen at the same time!
It’s a pessimistic view, I know. What do you think?
(Diversion Confession: The headline made me think of those little magnets toys I had as a kid that were in the shape of puppies - puppies with magnets in their noses so that when they got close together they would be drawn together nose to nose. I secretly hoped the article would be about cars attaching nose to nose. I can't, in two minutes of searching, find an image online for you to see said puppies here.)
