Comment on 79% of smart dash cams we tested had security flaws and concerns, and in some cases they were breaking the law - Out of 28, only six didn't have any concerns.

  in civilized countries consent is required for that

  If you don’t want to be recorded by people at random, stay home. you are free to die

    It’s the same in most of Europe afaik. You can’t be filmed as a primary subject without consent. For example, I can photograph you in the background of a monument or in nature, without having to ask your consent.
    It’s the same for dashcams, you are filming the road primarily not the pedestrian.

      To be fair, if you’re intentionally only filming one specific person, I’m sure they could claim harassment at some point. Maybe public disturbance or nuisance?
