Tesla, Tesla records EVERYTHING

They only record and transmit out of the car if you've given data permission, and I believe in an accident, but I may be wrong on that. The internal camera stays internal as well, or E2E encrypted to only you via the app.

If you've given data permission though, assume they are taking everything.

I'm assuming you're referring to that Mozilla report, but it's never been clear to me even after reading it how these car companies collect data on your sex life of all things.
