An unreleased version of a Waymo privacy policy found by Jane Manchun Wong says it may use interior camera data to train AI models and sell ads.
(programming.dev)
Waymo is working on Generative AI training using “interior camera data associated with rider’s identity,” provides opt-opts for this and data sharing under CCPA
Waymo explicitly states in this unreleased Privacy page it may share your data for personalized ads
Why does this change anything if it's an unreleased policy? Doesn't that imply they dont use the collected data to train ai if their current policy doesn't include this? I'm not defending anything I'm just wondering why everyone here is ready to take a screen shot of an "unreleased" document as valid proof a company is doing devious shit instead of the possibility it might be that they went a different direction. I mean I know it's owned by Google so this is prolly not a good scenario to argue but I'm just saying this seems like such a seedy source for every comment in her to be like yeah fuck them.
Edit: lol I 100% admit this sounds like a total shill comment so obligatory fuck Google to assure anyone I'm not defending Google or waymo just wondering why everyone seems to accept this source.
I had the exact same reaction. Like who cares about an unreleased version of a document. if this was a version they released than yeah ok. But it's not, so why do we care at all? Do people live in a fantasy land where you suppose employees wouldn't think about collecting this kind of info. It probably went through a review and was thrown out. I can't wait for them to leak the drafts of these policies in the future, can you imagine all the spelling errors!!
