On my FedEx Chevy Express Van, the installers mounted the camera directly behind the rear view mirror, blocking it's view of me. I didn't even to need to leave them a tip.
There are little green lights that illuminate when the camera is on.

If that was the case then why did they have us sign the three-page document with a bunch of privacy legalese?

Powering up and recording are 2 different things. Either way, do your job and quit texting and you will have no worries.

The camera is on constantly and recording. When an event is triggered, it saves the footage and then sends it up.
I'm not sure of the actual times but for example, a lot of places do 30-60 seconds before and after the event...

You're a ground contractor so this doesn't affect you.
Additionally, biometric data is protected and treated differently in some states. It's recognized in the GDPR. It is important to recognize that the data and driver profiles is based off of your private person, not just what you do in the job.
For example, if I had a driver profile built by my employment at Express and I happen to walk by another Nauto camera, even if it's not a FedEx one, it would be able to recognize me and associate me to that imagery. That's some Orwellian crap right there.

Everything is Orwell to some people. Hysterical nonsense most of the time.

Oh, what if there's a breach? OK, let's play that out.Actually, it's not that funny. You're going to go down the line of "Well, Facebook, twitter, here, etc." For the record, I don't do Facebook and I try to keep a low-ish profile on the internet.
Nauto is a company with it's HQ in Ireland. God forbid something happens with a breach, what is FedEx going to do for the people who were part of that breach? I mean, if it's a condition of our employment to allow them to store PII, it should be our right to take FedEx to the cleaners if Nautos up. I mean, "They comply with our InfoSec policy"..... the same policy that caused MEMH to get shut down and infected by a virus.
Plus, this isn't a password that can be changed, this is data that is based off of something that cannot be changed -- your image and your characteristics.
There's a breach and let's say they get 5 months' of recordable incidents. For example, on June 10, 2021, there is a 10 second video of a nameless person driving and hitting a pothole. The accompanying data is that it happened at 10:48 AM, going NE on Main St in Anytown, TN at a speed of 28 PMH and was recorded by unit # 201A5578FG2, which is leased to the FedEx corporation headquartered in Memphis, TN.
You're worried about that.

The information is worthless outside of FedEx.

Do they have cameras in corporate? Maybe aimed at the coffee pot, maybe the candy machine. That is all you would have anything of value to add.

Not only that, it probably already knows your address and would tap in to your wifi (and anything connected to it!) and build all these other profiles, too. Just think of it, anytime you walk by a Nauto camera, it instantly knows how many times you watched Baby Shark on YouTube.
Chilling, I tell you!

You should have seen some of the stuff on the FedEx FB group. I don't know how much of it I actually believe but I suspect some of it is nothing more than resistance for the sake of resistance, like a bald man fighting to get a comb.

Sure, go ahead. You're probably used to wasting your time watching others be productive anyway.
