The EV Data Heist Is Real: Your Car Is Selling You Out 🤯

The current data economy is pure extraction: Devices generate, corporations collect, middlemen profit, and drivers pay the price. Your EV is the perfect example. Necessary operational data has quietly become free monetization fodder for automakers. Data brokers, insurers—your own car is weaponized against you. This isn't innovation; it's surveillance capitalism.

Walrus flips the script. It engineers trust via decentralized storage, programmable access, and native encryption. No single entity controls the data. DLP Labs using Walrus isn't just a tech choice; it’s a philosophical stand where data belongs to the driver. Consent dictates sharing, not corporate policy. 🛡️

Privacy and monetization are NOT enemies when data is decentralized. Centralized systems force you to choose between total exposure or zero benefit. Walrus offers precision: share only what’s necessary, keep the rest private, and get paid for both. This isn't theory; tens of thousands of vehicles are already leveraging this infrastructure.

As EV adoption skyrockets, vehicle data value will explode. If drivers don't reclaim ownership now via protocols like Walrus, that value is permanently locked behind corporate APIs. This is the fork in the road: continue the extraction model or build one where users control and benefit from their digital footprint. The choice is about the future of digital ownership.
