How about some common sense?

All major car manufacturers do indeed have experience or access to experience in critical control design. The problem isn't in their abilities but in their choices.

Yes, their purpose and usefulness is obvious. As a supplement. Mirrors should be left as they are.

The discussion isn't as much about a common backing camera (which also falls under 'useful accessory' I mentioned), but about cameras replacing mirrors.

Car manufacturers do too.

Nothing to discuss here, the article is spot on. I doubt though that those top of the class manufacturers are this stupid. They are rather playing the stupidity of the common consumer.

Rear view cameras might be better than mirrors in terms of field of view. This doesn't make them objectively better. Disadvantages are well argumented in the article. They are an useful accessory but shouldn't replace real vision.

Yes, of course they were smarter.

All a malicious website has to do to be convincing is to have a more conventional landing page then?

The disk and sudo mentioned are good enough clues, then you have the about.

The outcome is visible and not up for discussion, so is the fact that this is a problem for the influencer.

The difference is wether the effect is intentional or not.

"Non-technical" isn't an insult.

What you call "well actually"ing is well within limits on a technical forum.

Most people might think that someone doesn't need LLM for that.

"We (...)"

They should be educated, sure, but this can't be an education issue. Rather an issue of crappy upbringing and low intellect or, when it's a cultural thing, crappy culture.
