Why shouldn't I get my cut, then? Why do they get to double dip? The point of the dash cam is that the data is ephemeral unless it's actually needed because something exceptional happened.

They do offer to pay you for it, which you'd know if you read the article.

OP obviously read the article; please don’t be aggressive.

So you pay $20/month to be able to earn some crypto-coins they generate out of thin air to be used for...

If they aren't paying the equivalent of whatever the government allows you to deduct for 'wear and tear' on your vehicle then you're basically just subsidizing their data collection.

I don't even have an opinion on this, you do you.

--edit--

Oh, I saw down thread they're primarily a fleet services company and that explains a bunch. $20/month per car probably makes sense if you're outfitting an entire fleet and integrate it with your wonky in-house drivers' app which is barely fit for purpose. Yeah, I'm not bitter...
