No action will be taken against Tesla following an investigation by the Dutch Data Protection Authority (DPA) into the images captured by the vehicle’s cameras used in Tesla’s ‘Sentry Mode’ helps owners protect their vehicles against theft or vandalism, but the DPA claimed that the cars were ‘filming everyone who came near the vehicle, and these images were being saved for a very long time’. However, the authority noted that the images were stored in the car, and not shared with Tesla, making the car’s owners responsible.

Buzzfeed has also entered into a deal to bring creators to Meta’s platforms.
