Two ex-employees said they weren’t bothered by the sharing of images, saying that customers had given their consent or that people long ago had given up any reasonable expectation of keeping personal data private.
Not even is safe
About three years ago, some employees stumbled upon and shared a video of a unique submersible vehicle parked inside a garage, according to two people who viewed it. Nicknamed “Wet Nellie,” the white Lotus Esprit sub had been featured in the 1977 James Bond film, “The Spy Who Loved Me.”
The vehicle’s owner: Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk
One ex-employee also said that some recordings appeared to have been made when cars were parked and turned off. Several years ago, Tesla would receive video recordings from its vehicles even when they were off, if owners gave consent
“I saw some scandalous stuff sometimes, you know, like I did see scenes of intimacy but not nudity,” said another. “And there was just definitely a lot of stuff that like, I wouldn't want anybody to see about my life.”
As an example, this person recalled seeing “embarrassing objects,” such as “certain pieces of laundry, certain sexual wellness items … and just private scenes of life that we really were privy to because the car was charging.”

Build quality and the fact they can lock you out of super charging for not using verified repair services did it for me

I always wanted to work at one of these places where they're just constantly looking at people's data because I'm a nosy fella and like peoplewatching
If they don't do anything malicious with the info then let 'em have fun I say

Not everyone is an exhibitionist. I prefer my cars/appliances/devices do not broadcast a 24/7 reality tv show of my life to the manufacturer.

Not looking forward to the day that all cars glow this hard. Hopefully the knowledge of jailbreaking will grow enough that you can pay some guy to force your heated seating on and disable the CIA remote control switch.

Do people really not want the company investigating why their software sucks at detecting shit or do they just really desire to want to keep complaining about Tesla's software being terrible
