I think the idea here is that they want to make these devices the new norm, getting people used to them (so that the rates they get today would only be valid with this device). These things have cellular chips built into them and they upload the data to their servers. One day, I predict (IMO) that you will get worse rates than you have today, unless you opt for the device.
Stage 2 (OBD3?) may force integration of these devices into the ECU. The power is with the people to prevent this.. (Note: I am well aware of the black box that we already have.. Just no cellular *yet*.)
