Former Tesla employees allegedly circulated "highly invasive videos and images recorded by customers' car cameras" in an internal messaging system, according to a Reuters investigation. The publication conducted interviews with nine former employees who claimed "the recordings caught Tesla customers in embarrassing situations" and were shared among employees between 2019-2022. Tesla’s privacy notice states "camera recordings remain anonymous and are not linked to you or your vehicle," but multiple employees said Tesla has a program that could locate where videos were taken.
