[EFF Article] The Impending Privacy Threat of Self-Driving Cars (www.eff.org)

submitted 1 year ago by Raisin8659@monyet.cc to c/technology@lemmy.world

Summary:

Self-driving cars collect a massive amount of data, including visual and other information.
This data could be used to track people's movements, which could pose a threat to privacy.
There is a lot of uncertainty about how this data is stored, secured, and accessed.
Law enforcement agencies have already served warrants to self-driving car companies for footage.
It is important to have strong privacy laws that address the data collected by self-driving cars.
We need to know more about how much footage police request and how companies respond to these requests.
Regulators need to consider the civil liberties implications of self-driving car data collection.

Thanks for the discussion. The EFF article also raises the issue of privacy for people around the car that is collecting vast amounts of information, which EFF proposes that it should be regulated to ensure privacy.
