    Question for any Tesla owners - is sharing video with Tesla opt-in? Their Privacy Notice implies so:

    "...your consent for Data Sharing is required and can be controlled through the vehicle’s touchscreen at any time. Even if you choose to opt-in,...camera recordings remain anonymous and are not linked to you or your vehicle."

    Opt-in muddies the privacy-violation waters a bit. It's still not 100% OK IMO, but if the owner has to go in to the settings and enable data sharing, that's better than Tesla grabbing the video without permission.

    Another page indicating that sharing camera data is opt-in:

    Its completely opt-in

    We know from the recall NHSTA data that like 300,000 ppl have FSD or something like that now, im pretty sure FSD because its beta requires basically all the footage to upload to the cloud, because they need that for the neural network to get better, and they had manual people labeling stuff.

    They go out of their way to say that autopilot doesnt record anything. makes sense as that would be a ton of bandwidth for millions of vehicles to be doing that all the time, my spotify/maps/whatever would probably be choked by it.

    Tesla vehicles are equipped with a camera suite designed from the ground up to protect your privacy while providing advanced features such as Autopilot, Smart Summon, and Autopark. To recognize things like lane lines, street signs and traffic light positions, Autopilot data from the camera suite is processed directly without leaving your vehicle by default. In order for camera recordings for fleet learning to be shared with Tesla, your consent for Data Sharing is required and can be controlled through the vehicle’s touchscreen at any time. Even if you choose to opt-in, unless we receive the data as a result of a safety event (a vehicle collision or airbag deployment) — camera recordings remain anonymous and are not linked to you or your vehicle.
