I mean you talk about confirmation bias. According to google the humans caused all the accidents (which is up to 12 now). But they won't share any evidence to that effect, we just have their word.
So you work for google, and they ask if you were driving or the car, what do you think they want to hear?
So, yah uniformity is a thing, and "resistance is futile" is a thing, and global markets are a thing, and the safety bit is way overblown, mostly laziness. And the oft repeated insurance savings are a joke.
But I don't think anyone with a brain has to make up stuff or speculate wildly about it, that is the really sickening part. There are so many caveats that you have to minimize and ignore in the process.
Do you think it would be a good thing, once we have privatized central vehicle control, if only the richest folks could go over 25mph? I mean once you eliminate all the real drivers that is, which is clearly what you want us to think the "market" wants.

"The person familiar with the accident reports said the cars were in self-driving mode in two of the four accidents, all of which involved speeds of less than 10 mph."
So, you know, believe the marketing BS, even endorse it to the point of irrationality, put your sycophanty on permanent record.
