15 Signs the Government Is Spying on You (and 5 Ways They’re Already Watching You Every Day) | Good Car Camera

Fricker feels hopeful some funding will come through to keep the experiment afloat a bit longer. “This GPS has been the backbone of all these projects — it’s the one thing that ties all of then together,” she said. “ICESat, ICESat-2, WISSARD, SALSA, they all needed the GPS to put everything into context.”

Q10: In China, Volvo wants to enter the robo-taxi market. Will Europe be next? Official answer: “One of our aims is to be the supplier of choice for ride-hailing companies. We have deals with Uber and Baidu today. Others may come in future.” What we think: Good old conservative Europe will make things very complicated for robo-taxis. The EU member states will have endless discussions on robo-taxi legislation and accountability, whereas the public – including employers – will be difficult to convince of the fail-proofness of it all.

re: #2 – Subjective intent is only relevant because precedents have said that subjective intent the other way. If police are allowed a good-faith exception, then there should certainly be a legitimate inquiry when you have actual evidence of bad faith.

The day she disappeared, Huisentruit told a colleague she was on her way to work early that morning but never arrived. Police found signs of a struggle outside her apartment in Mason City.

Axelrod knocked on Vanscie’s door. He answered but said he did not want to talk and closed the door.

Since 2003, Crowley has invested over a quarter of a billion dollars in new cargo equipment for its fleet. Today, the company operates more than 53,000 pieces of owned and leased intermodal equipment, including more than 19,500 chassis, 23,000 dry containers and 5,200 refrigerated containers – all of which come in a variety of sizes and are strategically located throughout the U.S, Central America and the Caribbean.

It has been 23 years since Huisentruit was last seen. She was declared legally dead in 2001, and no one has been charged in her disappearance.

Last year, authorities in Xinjiang, a restive region in western China that has become a laboratory for China’s surveillance state, ordered residents to install GPS devices so their vehicles could be tracked, according to official media. This summer the Ministry of Public Security, a police agency, began to roll out a system to track vehicles using windshield radio frequency chips that can identify cars as they pass roadside reading devices.

Mazda also started up “M2,” a boutique section of the company to produce ultra-low volume cars, almost like prototypes but sold to the public by the hundred or the dozen. (Cadillac did something similar with the 1950s Eldorados, but not to this extent.) Apparently internal politics kept this operation from reaching its full potential, but it still managed to produce a number of factory hot rods, all out of a retrofuture building in a hot Tokyo neighborhood.

If agencies do treat Mary’s decision as a win, they are moving beyond their traditional role as operators of assets like buses and subways to become mobility authorities, with a mission that encompasses all modes of mobility. This expansion of a transit agency’s mission makes sense, but there is a problem: The majority lack oversight of ride-hail, scooter-share, and other such services—and it’s generally cities rather than transit agencies that regulate the sidewalks and streets that private companies (and public buses) rely upon to move passengers. It doesn’t make sense for transit agencies to pursue a broad mission if they lack authority to execute on it.

Waymo, Uber and Tesla have all exhibited elements of ‘recklessness’ in their development of autonomous vehicles, as shown by the slew of accidents that have recently occurred 

"48 Hours" producers approached people with FindJodi.com and began working on the episode after attending the dedication of three billboards June 5 in Mason City. That date would have been Huisentruit’s 50th birthday.
