The best part is I do not have to worry about a third party vendor getting access to my smartphone’s data. For better or worse, the smartphone is a vault of almost everything about a person, including the ability to impersonate them. Obviously, Apple and Google already have access to all of this, but I see no reason to let yet another entity have it.

CarPlay is essentially a form of AirPlay, so the car is receiving a video stream from your phone, not data. (Of course, they could try to extract data from the video stream, but I doubt they have the technical skills to do that in the near future.)
