This should be illegal

It should, but Americans spent tons of energy fighting consumer protections and complaining about the EU requiring them from US companies.

Hard to see this issue move forward, when the population considers corporate rights more important than personal privacy.

Heck, tons of people appeared out of thw woodwork to complaining about Right-To-Repair, but now that several states have required it, everyone loves having the manuals/parts.

You would really think spying inside somebody's home would already be illegal.

Pretty sure they agreed to it. Whether or not that's actually enforceable will have to wait for a lawsuit and then a judge to decide. (You can't just say all EULA's are unenforceable)
