Thank you!

Yes, we have considered launching an open source effort to scale up the data, perhaps to be comparable to what Google has collected through paid tele-operators [0]. What do you think would be the right incentive structure for everyday volunteers to participate in this effort?

Privacy would be a big part of it. Video of my home could potentially contain lots of private information. How is that risk minimized?
We don't want any private information, so currently we are manually going over every new demo to make sure private data (face, hands, any other identifying information) doesn't get included in the dataset. Pretty hard to "blitzscale" this way, but I personally think doing it right is more important.
