From 2019 to at least mid-2022, Tesla employees used an internal messaging system to share "sometimes highly invasive videos and images recorded by customers' car cameras," according to a lengthy Reuters report based on interviews with nine former Tesla employees. Although Tesla says its in-car cameras are "designed from the ground up to protect your privacy," today's Reuters report described employees as having easy access to the cameras' output and sharing that freely with other employees. As Reuters notes, Tesla's customer privacy notice says that "camera recordings remain anonymous and are not linked to you or your vehicle." But seven ex-employees "told Reuters the computer program they used at work could show the location of recordings—which potentially could reveal where a Tesla owner lived," the article said. One former employee told Reuters, "We could see inside people's garages and their private properties." https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/04/tesla-workers-shared-images-from-car-cameras-including-scenes-of-intimacy/
Google and Meta get your browsing habits, they don't get any photos that you don't take with your camera.
Most importantly, there is a huge difference between using data for ML models to extract info for advertising purposes and employees having free access to images for their entertainment.
I regret buying a Tesla. I was a stupid musk and Tesla fanboy but I don’t think musk would have any regard for user’s privacy.
