What do Uber drivers make of Waymo? 'We are cooked'

Re: Waymo business model

The main computer will probably be hardened to the teeth and will need to contact the mothership in short intervals, else seizing to function. And an individual car‘s main components can surely be as tightly secured cryptographically. Think iPhones. I’m sure that, if deemed necessary, one could even have the tires need some DRM to them. And the seats‘ heating elements and motors. And so on. If HP can do it with their printers… But I digress.
