Yeah, it is victim blaming. The expectation is that they're going to use that data to improve the vehicle, or something within that realm, not turn the videos/images into memes and then pass them around for the yucks.
Edit: I'm open minded; in addition to downvoting, I'm genuinely curious why folk might think that I am incorrect here. Happy to correct my thought process.

We should hold the companies accountable. But maybe we shouldn't be so quick to reassure people that they couldn't have prevented things like this, so that when the next predatory company puts out a predatory product, there will be a sort of collective knowledge that relying on a corporation's good will is probably not a great idea. Then we might actually have people reject products that do user hostile nonsense, and the market will have to respond. In other words, this kind of thing is the teachable moment that can make it so everyone can be aware of the things that we are.
