Just want to clarify, Waymo was using their camera tech to give the police protestor information yo arrest people. They didnt just get a little too rowdy and set a car on fire, it was an act of self preservation to further their protest. Its important to put that in context, and not just throw that out there like people were just being hooligans.

Appreciate you adding that clarification. It was a while ago so I totally forgot about Waymo doing that!

It’s been… a really long year. Another 3.5 more to go.

Another 3.5 more to go.

An optimist, I see. I truly hope that ends up being the worst case scenario.

Remember, midterms in 1.5. They could let us stop most of this.
