That must be new https://www.reuters.com/technology/tesla-workers-shared-sens...

I believe that was autopilot footage that was uploaded for training after opting-in, not sentry video. And yes, they changed the policy as noted in the article.

"Several years ago, Tesla would receive video recordings from its vehicles even when they were off, if owners gave consent. It has since stopped doing so."

In that link "The company requires car owners to grant permission on the cars’ touchscreens before Tesla collects their vehicles’ data"

What format does that take? Is it the "Click Ok to agree to everything so you can use the app" type crap?

I am reticent to give Tesla the benefit of the doubt.

No, it's not. You can see the screen here. It's clearly optional. If anything, people complain they see it too often.

But don't click yes if you spend time nude in your garage like the people in the original claim.
