Have a car with an internet connected interior camera, brehs...
One former employee reported seeing "scandalous stuff," including "scenes of intimacy but not nudity," as well 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." Meanwhile, one "former employee saw nothing wrong with sharing images, but described a function that allowed data labelers to view the location of recordings on Google Maps as a 'massive invasion of privacy.'"
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."
