Just because it is an ethical disaster does not mean it is not also a PR disaster. It looks a lot like both to me, one followed closely by the other.

In theory. Has any company seen the pointy end of GDPR yet?

How much further do we let them dig? What line do we point to that they don't erode like the rest?

Too bad they went straight to 'blackface bad', withoug exploring what Al did for race reltions in his day. While it is a bit off color now, minstrel shows were a unifying force in a very torn america.

So much history is being lost to those 'reporters' deaf to the nuance that makes our world interesting.

You are making a lot of unfounded assumptions in tht statement. As far as we can tell, 'self-driving' cars are no safer in real-world conditions any more than a trained driver is.

I think the biggest safety increse from transportation autonomy, whatever its form, we are already seeing with Uber et al. Those who would rather not drive, don't have to.

Except for the fact; less people are dying on them.

It is a bit of both. Sure, 'public' becomes a bit tenious (Perhaps 'government' is a better descriptor?), but still applies. Other truly communist nations have had similar issues with despotism however. And as is parroted so often, a government is where the state has a monopoly on violence. The trick is to limit the rights and abilities of the state to do so without just cause while allowing minority opinions to flurish.

I promise as a kid I would have learned to hack grandpas implant to order pizza. Take every digital life intergration with a box of salt.

Mostly fence nails and 100 year old remneants. Lots of ferric metal can occur naturally and is no better. Its not like garbage or trash as you are so inelequently suggesting. Cows eat nearly anything, so if you take the responsibility for their well-being by raising them, you have to plan accordingly.

If only they had oil, we could do something...

When those designs strip your privacy, 'fuzzy by design' is cery much a bug to the user, and only a feature to the company mining the data.

This is indeed the case. NYT is now an AdTech company according to recent business press, and will be selling the data themselves.

The roads have been extra fun for those of us who enjoy them responsibly. I have seen only a few cases of unusual/dangerous things. I feel like only those with extreme experinces are reporting because of the interest effect. While cities are less busy, many rural areas seem as busy as ever, partly due to increased traffic from people looking to 'get out', is my only interesting observation..

This is your signal to build the thing you were thinking about.

So much money on the table for anyone that can reinvent, but allow easy migration from that once great site.
