A conversation with a Tesla service person about my car made me realise just how much data the car shares with Tesla's "Mothership".
We were discussing the problems arising from the faulty car computer and I mentioned that the side cameras were regularly reporting that they had been blinded or were unavailable. She told me when and at what time each error had reported to Mother. She seemed to know where I was driving and in what direction as she realised the setting sun would be low in the sky and shining directly at the side of the car, so dazzling the camera (and me, to be honest).
It turns out that it is not a car computer issue, but made me wonder just how much data the car collects and shares....
Anyone know more?
