That makes sense but why should employees have easy access to it?

Yeah there should definitely be a better governance structure preventing employee access without a structural justification like a law enforcement request, customer service request, etc.

As an owner of a model Y, I’m beyond pissed off they’re so lackadaisical with this stuff, to the point where I may just buy a different car.

> to the point where I may just buy a different car.

I love this line of rhetoric. Seriously, I doubt that you will. If you consider all of the shenanigans that Tesla is known to do, you shouldn't have bought the car if you're concerned about privacy. Any car that has cameras on the car that looks at the interior of the car should not have been purchased in the first place. OF COURSE they will be looking at video when they shouldn't be. Has there ever been an example of a company that hasn't? Ring has done it. Roomba has done it. Open it to any data not just camera, and people like Uber have used that data for nefarious purposes.

Any device that sends back data to the home office is just too ripe for misuse. Then, when it comes out in examples like this that it has occured, there is 0 liability for the company involved. Maybe the company makes an example out of the employees in various ways up to dismissal, but the company just shrugs it off.

It should be encrypted and the owner of the vehicle should be in control of the keys.

Or just disable the data sharing option in the UI?

If it's not one of your core goals from the very start of your design, it's pretty hard to build a system where employees can't access data. Obviously you can do it, but it's not trivial and it's doubly not trivial to add after the fact.

They obviously shouldn’t.
