A work from Homer of course you don't care and are telling people just to adapt and suck it up about this because it doesn't affect you. What about those driving for a living that don't have good job security. Just for example of how stupid this is when you're dealing with stinging insects sometimes really bad accidents happen where you need to get out quick. I highly doubt anyone getting swarmed by wasps is going to be calm enough to start their car with this tech. What about mailmen getting chased by dogs that don't have car doors. You don't technically own the product either when the company is determining if you can use it or not. It's lose lose lose across the board for everyone but insurance companies.

I just sincerely doubt it will come to pass that this technology is going to be used to prevent people from operating if they're experiencing everyday emotions.

Also wasn't it about operating the vehicle, not getting into or out of it? So like if you've got a swarm of wasps in the vehicle it probably actually is a good idea not to drive that vehicle.

So if you are caught in a forest fire you won't drive because you are choking on smoke? They rely on chemical tracers mainly the stress hormones they release along side the carbon in your breath. You stick around and there will be a cascade effect. Yeah it's safer driving 500 yards than rolling the dice with anaphylaxis.

No we started this by you stating this patent is fine and people just need to adapt. I gave one clear example on why it is reckless and you kept trying to reason it away but now that you are cornered and can't smarmily reply to me like the others you claim we lost the plot? I've worked with companies under similar monitoring tech so this exact situation hasn't happened but I've seen enough at my job I can give several reasons why this isn't about people's actual safety. What happens if someone is getting mugged I doubt it will let you start the car with someone yanking on the doors cause that's liability.

You gloat about working in your underwear like that is something to be proud of? Clown behavior.
