The answer is that most people don't care if it benefits them. My Tesla has 6 cameras recording full time when driving and parked, but it benefits me so I enable it. It saved me $1000+ (my deductible and possible rise in insurance rates) when someone hit my car while parked at Costco (they drove off but Sentry Mode caught them).
fyi Tesla employees were caught accessing private videos.

Did that result in a hit-and-run charge for them?
Thanks for recording me without my consent just because I walked past your car parked. /s

If you’d like the opposite of this story: I was reversing out of a parking spot. I had moved about 2 feet and a drunk driver hit and ran my vehicle. The driver was charged by police because driving at 40mph and hitting cars in a shopping center in broad daylight got a lot of attention.
I gave the video footage from my car to local police and insurance company and the insurance companies ruled I was at fault because I was in reverse.
