This is a normal post Who do you sue when a self-driving car hits you?
Who is responsible when it drives you into a river ford and drowns you? Who is responsible when someone attaches a remotely controlled gun to a self-driving car and goes on an unstoppable rampage?

Yes, it is possible to do many things with technology, but in lots of cases its worth saying "what the fuck for?"

This is a normal post You bloody LUDDITE!
Life without mobile phones and the internet was utterly unsustainable and terrible. Look how much happier we are as a result.

I'd argue that neither of those inventions result in a 3-ton executive car mowing you down at a billion miles an hour.

Interesting it looks like the more the world can communicate with each other through technological advance the more we realise that everyone is a thick, uncaring tosser and correspondingly the unhappier we are in our existential isolation.

This is a normal post On the contrary,
Mobile phones result in exactly that on a regular basis...

This is a normal post The driver
It's the driver who would have to sue the maker. That's in a sane world though.
