Without even going back far:

Looking at 2014 Honda Civic it says this with features: “It also includes a new HondaLink Assist feature that automatically attempts to notify an operator and report the vehicle’s location whenever it senses that an airbag deployment has taken place.”

Guess how that works?

Then where were you when Jalopnik was initially negative about Tesla? Were you complaining then? Again, they got to where they are because they earned it.

And the Tesla Model 3 was part of Tesla’s master plan since day 1, so obviously the day that took almost a decade in the making is going to get a lot of publicity.

I guess Phoenix Arizona barely hits the minimum height of a mountain. in terms of elevation. Even so 110 would still be above average even in a place like Arizona which is last I checked only 1 part of the US.

To me it sounds like you are biased against Tesla and anyone who does not set your benchmarks is automatically biased towards Tesla? Last I remember Jalopnik in the early days bashed Tesla quite a lot, Tesla got to where they are by proving themselves despite.

And are you seriously comparing the Leaf to the Tesla Model

What he wants is not real world testing as much as testing of niche extreme conditions. I mean going up a mountain generally has lower temperature, but he wants 110 degrees which are extremely rare conditions.

The 5 cycle EPA test while not perfect is currently the best test in the world.

Every modern car today comes with cell service, which means every car manufacturer can track your movements.

Uber is not going to be the only self driving service in town, others will as well, And I will bet the automakers will have their own self driving services as well.

Ok, and so what? If you have a new car, your auto manufacturer can track your car’s movement and usage. If you have a cellphone, your carrier can track your movement and usage. And?

We have been over this and you were discussing how you don’t want your employer to know that you are driving to work. So I responded you don’t need to use your employers self driving car, you can pay for your own self driving service.

Privacy where? In a car? From who?

The ridesharing service company and your work company are 2 different companies. So while the ridesharing company might track some data, it is not going to be available to your work company unless maybe your work company is paying them for transportation costs and they have a contract.

No you are not comparing Apples to Apples. I at no point mentioned usage of Uber with a driver. And this is not what the article is about.

Again, that is only if the company owns the self driving car, if you sign up for a self driving car service yourself, then that is different. Even if the company reimburses you, they can’t track it.

Right now, SSL usage is becoming more and more mainstream. With introduction of Let’s Encrypt you can get your hands on a

I think you are confusing multiple conversations. Again, we are talking about self driving cars providing a ride sharing service.

Unless your company specifically owns the self driving cars, the answer to that would be no. I will also point out that if the connecting device is your own, and you are not accessing via their VPN, they can not see your SSL communication.

I think you are mixing up different discussions. We are talking about self driving cars in an uber like service in the near future. Not current Uber which has driver costs and consumer gas costs.

And yet even leasing a Kia for 129$ a month would still cost you over 2X more per month.

Yes, people do buy luxury cars for one reason or another, but that is not going to change with self driving cars either. More luxury cars are going to be available for self driving at a higher cost, but still a lot cheaper than
