Although it did not mention OnStar by name, a United States Appeals Court ruled in 2003 that the government may be able to use the on-board cell phone to eavesdrop on drivers

it sounds like they could drop in on you any time they want. would be kind of embarrassing if you decided to pull over at a rest stop with your SO and bang a gong...
but it's like any other technology. in the right hands, used for valid purposes, i don't find anything wrong with it. now, if it recorded an accident and you are trapped in the vehicle and they decided to eavesdrop to see if you were ok, then that is one thing. used for other, ulterior motives, smacks of big brother.
