Owner of a Tesla Car: Non-compliance with general data processing principles

The Austrian DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 600 on the owner of a Tesla car. The controller's car had seven cameras installed, which filmed while the car was in use and while it was parked, recognising possible threats. However, the threat recognition system meant that the car filmed people who were not a threat and therefore for no reason. Additionally, data subjects had not been informed about the filming.
