Pretty bold to have launched in a city that already has a functional driverless cab service, and with people that now have expectations of something good. I don’t know how delusional they must be to think they will compare well to Waymo.
Personally I don’t think there’s any obligation. Folks have campaigned for rights to be enjoyed, not for those people who receive the rights to feel obligated to join the fight.
If you can afford it consider donating to a charity that supports campaigners for the rights you enjoy. This way you can increase their ability to campaign without needing to be directly involved.
I once went through a BART gate line by mistake, I was trying to get to the trolley service and misread the signage. I immediately exited. The charge: $6.20. Still can’t believe it.
My local NHS doctor adopted a new platform recently. It took a surprisingly large amount of effort to confirm Palantir weren’t involved before I agreed to login to it. I would have flat out refused to use it if Palantir were involved.
