        @Snowden key refinement: self driving cars running on decentralized networks. otherwise fragile system kills privacy & vulnerable to attack

        @snowden but wouldn’t self-driving cars *require* one of the widest surveillance programs in the world to function?

        @Snowden As long as they are secure. A mass hack of self driving cars could cause a lot of death and injury.

        @mbmbender @snowden @ianbrownoii i think in terms of the ‘more lives saved’ question only it could statistically be true.
