Like (I think) Ben Goren, in the last few years, even before some of the recent news revelations, I've been developing more concern for personal privacy. Some of my friends have commented on my growing collection of stylish tinfoil hats ;-). Those activation cards for charging stations - from what I can tell, cash is never an option, as it is at gasoline filling stations - make me a little uncomfortable. When you use them, you're effectively being tracked. The data are logged somewhere, and who knows how good the security is? It's one more hole in your privacy shield. OK, it's probably not a big one, but still it's another place for your personal data to leak out. So, that's one more advantage for home charging : improved privacy.
