      This paranoia is driven by people who think they are so exceptional that foreign governments need to watch them all day.

      If this bothers you, put tape over the cameras or pull the SIM card.

        Like most EVs, I assume the Chinese will have over the air connections (ostensibly for “updates”) so good luck with ‘pulling the SIM card’

        Any programmer worth his salt is going to have a “Your cameras appear to be dirty, please clean them before engaging Drive function” error message.

        I dont think Im exceptional enough to follow. I DO think AI is powerful enough to follow EVERYONE and collate all our data for foreign intelligence.

        Idk, when daily devices are spywares then it is more difficult for potential spy targets to stay safe.

        I think of soldiers using strava and revealing base/ships activities, or government people driving with their personnal car to work, then it is easy to spot them.
