So what do you do instead? You’re aware that nearly every rideshare app is collecting massive amounts of data right? I’d imagine even many of the larger public transit systems are as well.
I guess I’m just not seeing what you gain? Your movements are very likely still being tracked.
For 90% of my transportation needs, I use a bicycle. For the rest, I take a cab. I'm fully aware that my cab rides are tracked.

Sure, but there is still great value in reducing the amount of data leakage when possible. And in this case, the data is going to the car manufacturers and the companies they share with (marketers, etc) -- entities that have no legitimate need for any data at all about me.
Cutting them out plugs a large data leak without causing any inconvenience or hassle to me, so why wouldn't I?
