No, this is a good thing. All Tesla's have cameras running on them nearly all the time. Any "disgruntled" driver who does any amount of various illegal things to them can easily be found and punished in the legal system. Quickest way to end the bullshit.

In Germany, this would probably end badly for the owner of the car doing the filming in a public space and the vandal would probably walk free with his/ her legal fees getting paid by the owner of the car, if the vandal would caught at all. It is illegal to monitor a public space and violates personality rights. A reasonable judge might perhaps give the owner of the car a hefty fine for violating personal rights and order the vandal to pay for the damage. IANAL. Either way, I don't see it as a winning strategy to film anything in a public space in Germany, it will get you in trouble and will most likely not solve anything. I think vandalism is the kind of thing that cannot be excused in adults. Certainly damaging anybody's car on purpose is something only a complete idiot would do.

  It is illegal ? So when are they shutting down all those cameras in Berlin, apparently its the second most surveilled city in Europe after London: https://www.statista.com/chart/19268/most-surveilled-cities-in-europe/ https://www.statista.com/chart/19268/most-surveilled-cities-...

    After they've shut down the police for impersonating the police.

        Either that or people/entities surveiling their own ground.

  I do not think that Tesla would be making a gigafactory in Germany if they were to make them disable a primary feature of the car. I could be wrong. I don't know, but I've never heard of anybody bringing up this issue.

  The German take on privacy in public spaces is obviously absurd and needs to be adjusted.
