Why would anyone think pulsing headlights means they are being recorded? They're much more likely to simply think there's something wrong with the headlights.
- mrtksn 3y agoIt would totally make me think that I'm watched and if I'm being watched maybe I'm being recorded too. However, I still don't like the proliferation of the 7/24 surveillance. Should start a religion or something that strongly prohibits that so we can push back a bit maybe.
- borissk 3y agoNo need for a religion - just don't buy the products of companies, like Tesla, that don't know what privacy means.
- mrtksn 3y agoWhat if someone buys one and parks close to my home?
- colejohnson66 3y agoIn many states, there’s already nothing stopping your neighbor pointing a camera at your doorstep. Why does a car on the street make it any different?
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoIs there any US state that provides for an expectation of not being video recorded in public spaces? Europe is different.
- mrtksn 3y agoBecause neighbours don't do that and if someone does that you can politely ask stop doing it. Not everything has to go through the government I'm not everything has to be a lawsuit or regulated behaviour.
- rpgwaiter 3y agoYeah but.. there are no new cars for sale in the US that don't violate your privacy in a ton of ways. I guess you could get an old used car
- borissk 3y agoThere is difference in the degree in which they do the violation.
