There had been recent plans for an innovative new way to calculate car insurance risk for young drivers based on their social media online personalities. The original plan, recently halted by insurance provider Admiral, was to search the Facebook posts of first time car insurance customers to assess whether they were safe drivers, and then offer them discounted premiums.
