HU🚨 WAYMO ADMITS USING REMOTE OPERATORS IN THE PHILIPPINES FOR U.S. VEHICLES - TESLA SAYS “NO ONE HAS EVER BEEN ABLE TO TAKE OVER CONTROL OF OUR VEHICLES.”
During a U.S. Senate hearing, Waymo confirmed that human operators located in the Philippines can remotely intervene when its vehicles encounter problems on American roads.
That means in certain situations, a split-second driving decision isn’t being made by the car - it’s being influenced by a human thousands of miles away.
Senators openly warned about cybersecurity risks, delayed reaction times, and the implications of foreign operators interacting with vehicles moving through U.S. cities in real time.
Then Tesla testified.
Tesla stated its driving controls are physically isolated, cannot be accessed remotely, firmware updates require dual cryptographic approval, and that no hacker has ever taken control of a Tesla vehicle - despite years of paid hacking attempts.
Same hearing.
Same risks.
Two radically different systems.
Why does an “autonomous” car need a human in another country anywhere near the decision chain?
