In many cars, the modem that phones home with your data may be a separate unit. Depending on your make and model, you can sometimes buy cable adapters that will connect power to everything except that subsystem. The term to search for is a "DCM bypass plug".

It's mostly uniform. There is variation by location, but the maximum difference is +/- 0.7% from the nominal value of 9.8 m/s^2.

Any statement by Microsoft that doesn't include, "so we banned them from publishing auto-installed drivers for a year" is an insufficient response to this crime.
