Do you... not understand what the ADAS system does and how it works?

You have a camera aimed at your face when typing this nonsense post.

That camera isn’t on all the time scanning your face. God knows what sort of sketchy implementations car companies will come up with.
It's funny how assumptions betray us.

Not everyone is on their phone, or a laptop.

On a site for tech enthusiasts, there are a shocking amount of folks with very "tech is what you get at the Apple Store" mindsets about.

> Not everyone is on their phone, or a laptop.

Nor does everyone leave front-facing cameras (or any device camera) uncovered.

On a site of tech enthusiasts I'd expect an intelligence level of understanding the difference between an embedded ADAS camera and a surveillance system. So how about you check you assumptions first? :)
Any system used to surveil is a surveillance system, QED.

There's no minimum fidelity required, you could use potentially any sensor to surveil. It's a question of use.
