Which country is providing more than the US? The only thing that matters is the absolute numbers. Ukraine doesn't care if Moldova contributes 10% of its GDP because it amounts to nothing compared to 1% of US GDP.

What an intellectually dishonest take comparing Candy Crush to US big tech. You should be embarrassed.

Spotify was made up of 75% US employees since the moment it validated its value.

DICE is a failed studio. Battlefield 2042 was one of the worst AAA video game launches of all time (with Cyberpunk 2077 by Polish studio CD Projekt Red being another) after a rocky Battlefield V launch and there is no reason to believe they will come back from it.

King makes low quality micro-transaction-riddled games for addicts.

Mojang -- OK.

>A human doesn't get random bugs every week from OTA updates.

What bugs are you referencing exactly? Humans have something called emotions that are far more variable than bugs in a safety critical system and you're exposed to thousands of different flavors every time you get on the road.

>The human mind is not a viable target for hackers.

But it is, and not even sophisticated ones at that. One lane change and a middle finger from a fellow driver can induce a murderous road rage.

>The risks of computer drivers are systemic and massive.

Hypothesis. Reality: 45,000 people die every year in the US from human drivers. That is systemic and massive.

A computer doesn't need a multi million dollar marketing campaign convincing it not to text while driving or drive drunk.

>I don’t need to wait for the kid to be in the street to start reacting and prepare for different possibilities.

Neither does a computer.
