I can definitely understand the need for certain services to be on a subscription basis -- programming for a self-driving car would surely be one of them. It's going to be interesting to see if that's even possible. (I personally think that even if it is, only the most elite will be able to afford it, but that's just me.)
I've heard several reports of people being killed in self-driving pilot programs, such as when a self-driving car failed to recognize a human driver motioning for it to go first at a 4-way stop, but these incidences aren't being given any press.
It makes me think of how not one, but two Boeing employees conveniently died -- "of natural causes" -- right before they were scheduled to testify against the company. Yeah, ok. I'm not smart enough to subscribe to most conspiracies, but any normal citizen knows corporations will go to any length -- especially murder -- to keep up a profit.
As for planting a permanent dwelling "where nobody knows where you are" -- maybe it's still possible in Tennessee, but I live in the Pacific Northwest. Out here, there is an ever-increasing numbers of unemployed, homeless, fentanyl-addicted people who are tirelessly looking for exactly those kinds of places -- and seeing as they have nothing but time on their hands, it won't be long before they find yours.
The added problem of living out in the middle of nowhere is that you might also be at a severe loss of getting any help in time.
I watched an RV'ing video last week hosted by a couple with years of experience in the community, and their warning of the week was to stay on guard if someone asks you if you've ever been in the military.
It was explained that these days, it's often not because they're trying to be friendly.
It's because they are gauging the likelihood that you'll have a gun somewhere on your premises -- and/or if you know how to use one.
