... Why would you put in all of that work, only to have an article written about your self and everything you do in the Atlantic?

It's an advertorial: > Harris is the CEO of HavenX, a firm that provides its clients with extreme privacy and security services

Pretty sure his existing connection to rich, famous, and powerful clients means he never has to resort to advertorials.

He's my hero! I might have a tip to share with him though. I use a Garmin to navigate, it's pretty decent. I can give up traffic reports for the reduction in surveillance. Regarding new cars with a GPS which cannot be removed: I am on the lookout for a new car now. However, I'll continue to use my 20 year old Toyota until I find a good car without a GPS in it.

Most cars until around 2020 have “one-way” GPS, specially in the lower tier since they don’t have road assist or Onstar type services.
