Now is no time to think of what you do not have.
Think of what you can do with what there is.

Another “Safety Feature.” Another Privacy Loss: redacted …“Known as the Advanced Driver Distraction Warning system, it uses an infrared camera to track your eyes and head movements, warning you if it determines you’ve looked away from the road for longer than the permitted time. Brussels says it’s about saving lives as part of its Vision Zero initiative to eliminate traffic deaths. Maybe it will. But it’s also another example of governments normalizing constant surveillance in the name of public safety. Officials insist the system won’t include facial recognition or biometric identification and is designed as a “closed loop,” meaning the camera data is supposed to remain inside the vehicle and not be transmitted to any third party. The problem is that we’ve heard promises like this before. Automakers have already been caught sharing driver behavior with data brokers, and Tesla employees were previously found accessing private vehicle camera footage. And once people get used to cameras monitoring them while they’re inside their own cars, it will be easy to mandate additional tracking features. But maybe that’s been the plan all along.”
