[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend lives in DC and has a parking spot in the shared alley behind their house. It's a bit like a small parking lot where 3 or 4 neighbors have spots as well. He owns a Rivian, which has 24 hour cameras mounted on the car.

I think most people have no idea they are being recorded when they are near one and, despite being in 'public', I think most people would assume a conversation they had with their spouse in an empty parking lot would be private. Well, he 'caught' a neighbor sh*t talking about him and now he can't let go of it. He showed me the recording and it was a pretty brutal take down. But, now he wants to confront the guy.

I'm telling him that's insane, right? Possibly even illegal, no?[/quote]

I think it's super weird that he was even listening to the recordings. Has he always been mentally ill or is this an affliction that developed later in life? Which personality disorder does he have?[/quote]

Yes, this. I have a Rivian as well and while it lives in a garage I have been tons of places in public where people have been standing near my car and not once as it ever occurred to me to go listen to the recordings to see if I caught anything interesting. [/quote]

Do you plan to try out that Rivian feature now? [/quote]

I'm going to be completely honest because this is an anonymous forum. There is a mom from my children's sport who has been causing drama and people often end up congregating around the cars and chatting. If I saw her talking to someone near my car, I absolutely may go back and watch the footage. But I don't have nearly enough time on my hands to go back through it all to see if she got near the car, I'm just saying if I happened to see her standing there talking to someone then I might.
