Ah, but you see, his reasoning is that what if the camera and lidar disagree, then what? With only a camera based system, there is only one truth with no conflicts!
Like when the camera sees the broad side of a white truck as clear skies and slams right at it, there was never any conflict anywhere, everything went just as it was suppo… Wait, shit.
Can’t wait to have to get a mandatory firmware update before my eyes or legs or something like that works again. I just hope Microsoft doesn’t get in on the cybernetics business or it’ll randomly happen while driving on the highway or forcefully fill your vision with blinding light for half an hour when you are trying to sleep.

Because:
Due to an amendment in December 2018 of the Unfair Competition Prevention Act in Japan, certain gaming-related activities and services have now been declared illegal. This includes:
- Distribution of tools and programs for modifying game saves
- Selling product keys and serials online without the software maker’s permission
- Game save and console modding services
As such, sales of products such as Pro Action Replay and Cybergadget’s “Save editor” have been discontinued.
It’s meant to ban sale of hardware devices and services that allow playing pirated games on Switch and such, but due to the way it’s worded it just bans them all.
Yes, they are correct in that there is no law requiring a banner popup. Functional cookies are always allowed, and you could always default to just not track people so you don’t need their consent either.
But if you want the user to give consent for the tracking cookies, and basically any site with advertisements really wants you to, then the popup is required, because the alternative - a disclaiming saying “by continuing to use you give consent bla bla bla” - has been deemed illegal. You need to get the user to actively opt-in to them and press I accept, and that means you nag at them with a popup. DNT header was a fantastic idea, for the users. Of course they didn’t want to use it, as it would have to also be opt-in (and so default to do not track) and probably 99.9% of browser users never change the default settings.
So while there is no law that says “you need a cookie consent popup”, there also effectively is.
1.8 billion is around 2% of their last year’s net income. At least it’s a bit better than the insignificant wristslaps companies tend to get.
