That's fine. I don't care who's driving the car carrying the camera. I care about what the camera can see. If you've ever been sent an Amber alert for a local child abduction it often comes with a description of the car that the suspect is driving. If I'm in law enforcement I'd much rather get an emergency warrant to ask Tesla to query the network to find that kind of car in a given geographic area.



Too late.

The future is here, and computers will see everything in excruciating detail via multiple planes of information. The power you consume, the data you send, the money you spend, the media you watch, the words you write, where you go.

It’s all out there in the world. There’s no taking it back, though we may be able to legislate about its use.
