@DeniseG@stranger.social This is nonsense... I happen to know Ford vehicles, and the telematics module he's talking about is literally on it's own fuse. Ford points out where this fuse is, and if you remove it, you'll lose cellular remote start capabilities and OTA and literally nothing else. (It won't even nag you!)
