According to the article, they have since 2017 but they've been disabled/unused until 2021.
Tesla used to rely entirely on a torque sensor in the steering wheel to determine if you're still paying attention; now they use the camera to monitor you too.
Supposedly this doesn't leave the car unless you've opted in to allow it, but given the Customer footage lawsuit Tesla is currently dealing with, I wouldn't trust that to be true.
I imagine there is a process to get hold of this footage from an individual vehicle following a crash? Especially when a lawsuit is confirmed.
