Dear Readers,
Virginia libertarian automotive journalist & author Eric Peters wrote this week
about “Vehicle to Vehicle” communications  V2V for short -- and what it has in
store for Americans as an instrument of tyranny, at the hands of The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration:
--------
"V2V is the next technological Great Leap Forward  the critical element
necessary to erect a nationwide grid of completely self-driving, autonomous
cars. V2V 2And also broadcasting and recording cars. V2V-enabled cars could
transmit and record every detail about your trip, such as how fast youÂ’re
driving at all times (not just a “snapshot”) as well as how rapidly you
accelerate and how rapidly you brake, your direction  and whether you’re in
motion or stationary  to a central database. Or to whomever happens to be
listening in. The potential for abuse is staggering; the diminution of our
already almost nonexistent private space a certainty."
