Why the assumption that this data tracking is somehow not an issue for driverless vehicles?  Autodrives will still need insurance.  They will still be tracked, by google&#x2F;apple and any number of other &quot;business partners&quot; for a start.  Those issuing insurance will still want to keep tabs on vehicle location&#x2F;speed&#x2F;movement should the inevitable insurable event occur.  The privacy concerns will be the same regardless of who is behind the wheel.<p>Now the exception to above is perhaps a world where none of these autodrives are privately owned.  One might think that in such situations a passenger&#x27;s movements would be anonymous.  They won&#x27;t be.  Even cabs&#x2F;ubers today keep track of who goes where.  Whenever a means of transport is not privately owned, payment will be an issue.  And payment leads to individualized tracking.<p>The further exception to above would be autodrives owned by google and paid for with untraceable cryptocurrency (or cash) ... that&#x27;s one too many layers of fantasy to debate.
