Actually that's exactly what they did because the "their" here encompasses all humans in the building. Unless there was a requirement to post prominent notices "you will be subject to filming if you enter this facility" around the place, then no there wasn't consent.
- cube2222 4y agoDon't you think that's on the testers who agreed to test that Roomba and set it up in their building?
- robin_reala 4y agoNot really. At least in the EU “consent” on its own doesn’t exist, the concept is “informed consent”. So Roomba, if relying on consent, should have informed the user of the need to get informed consent from every non-child family member and visitor that might come into contact with that Roomba and to transmit that informed consent to Roomba. (Children’s consent can be given by their guardians.)
