You might be able to just pull out the SIM card from your glove box. It needs a cellular connection to share data, but without a SIM card it can’t get data.
Not sure if it has any ill effects (ie: disabling emergency response stuff) but might be worth it depending on how privacy conscious you are.
I would expect them to use eSIM instead, no need to psy a worker or design a machine to shove a SIM card in every head unit, and pay for the production of the cards when you can just transfer an eSIM during programming.
The glove box? I’ve never seen a SIM card for something like that being in the glove box (you should never need to mess with it normally).
Generally all that stuff is tucked inside/around the head unit. I know my friends veloster had it all in the radio “unit”. When you removed the heat unit the box came with it. Same for my Outback, for that I needed to make a custom cable to fully remove it.

Do they still use physical SIM cards?
