The development of eCall is highly political with many industry players presenting skewed information to improve their position. Many aspects of eCall are not finalized. Much information is buried away in committees and working groups, and won't see the light of day until years from now. So many things that are true and relevant can't be posted to the article with a reference to back it up. Look out for propaganda in this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ErikH2000 (talkcontribs) 2007-07-14

Notability edit

This will be possibly the most important change to road safety regulations since airbags and ABS were made compulsory over a decade ago, and will affect and estimated 125 million European cars over the next decade, so the { { notability } } template was a bit preposterous in my opinion, and redundant with the 'improve' template. I have removed the former. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.15.8.141 (talk) 10:50, 5 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

This is definitely notable as it is a gross invasion of privacy to make it compulsory, it is also another good reason for the UK to leave the EU which seems to be run by these absolute bastards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.141.107.235 (talk) 23:41, 29 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • "Important" is not the same thing as "notable" and as the notability problem has not been addressed, I am restoring the tag. Please don't remove it until sources have been added to back up the claim for notability. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 15:08, 5 July 2012 (UTC)Reply


(same user as before) Nah, I couldn't care less about this article in particular or Wackypedia in general, I would have thought that the "notability" of this technology was rather self-evident but god knows what the definitions of "important" and "notable" are in the Wackyverse. Tell you what, how about trying to make yourself useful and doing a bit of Googling to see why this subject might (or possibly not) be "notable", or "important", or Wackyrelevant in some way. Bye. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.15.8.141 (talk) 22:53, 5 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

I think this is extremally importat topic. How does legislative and certification make sure the location data and telemetry are not accessible, when there is no emergency or explicit consent of the driver/owner? I guess, it could also be used to determine location of stolen car (i.e. if the keys were also stolen, or car was taken on truck, etc), but what procedures are available that only driver/owner can determine location, and not state or manufacturer or operator on a whim. 81.6.34.246 (talk) 18:07, 9 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
