@tojiro @mekkaokereke I've been kinda blown away by how much traffic AP generates. I'm running a GoToSocial instance that's just me. I only have like 200 followers, and it gets almost two million requests per month and uses like 500MB of RAM 24/7 (and this is a fairly efficient AP implementation!).

Just read: "The sheriff said Tesla CEO Elon Musk helped the investigation by ... and giving investigators video of the suspect at charging stations along its route from Colorado to Las Vegas." And I have questions and concerns.

So ... were there any checks and balances involved? Or can Elon Musk just grab any current or past footage from the built-in cameras of any Tesla ... just like whenever he feels like it? Is there a paper trail? Is there any oversight whatsoever?

Is there any actual process at Tesla for this kind of thing? Do they need a warrant? Or is the process for pulling footage "when Elon personally asks for it?" Because that's a bad process.

Is the standard for when it's okay to pull and share video "when Elon thinks it's a good idea?" Because that's a bad standard.

The CEO of a large corporation should actually not be directly involved in these sorts of processes.
