    The camera processes everything internally. There some build in machine learning model. It should not communicate or send anything images outside.

    Of course the problem is that it’s all closed source so you can’t verify that. Cars also call 112 now automatically in case of an accident so I suspect that ripping out your modem may cause some warning lights on your dashboard which can mean you will not pass your mandatory technical revision.

    So if you rip out your modem the camera will still work but you may have other issues.

      if i make an incident, someone will either call the 112 for me or i will do it, unless i am in the fucking land of no one, so the car callin the emergency number is straight up useless

        I didn’t say it’s useful or not. I said that cars have it. It’s mandatory in all new cars since 2018. If you disable it your car may not pass technical checks.

          It wasn’t something direct to you specifically but a general comment on that BS, mb

      Keep it for testing. I don’t want my car to be able to call anyone. Ever. For any reason. Notice the @infosec.pub . Trust me it’s wildly irresponsible engineering

        So you will put in the modem before technical check and the take it out again? That’s a great idea. Let me know what car model you have and how do you remove the model. The more instructions like this we have the better.
