Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde “oem” parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.

I looked at some wiring diagrams and forums; the wifi, Bluetooth, and OnStar are in one module. The module is able to be taken apart with a torx bit, I can't tell if it is a security torx. You would need some understanding of how electronics work to strategically break it so OnStar can't connect. There is the potential that no antenna can cause damage to the module, so be aware of that.
You can make a dummy antenna to plug in to make it so the module can't connect and lessen the likelihood of the entire module failing. There appears to be some ability for the car to phone home but I didn't find an answer if it was connecting to the phone, grabbing wifi somewhere, or if the dummy antenna still had enough connectivity.
