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.
