I'm waiting for someone to write about the incredible privacy that we are going to have to relinquish when municipalities have their own fleets of self-driving cars and they are the only way to get around. But nobody wants to talk about it yet.

Similarly it's not hard for someone to watch you if you walk/bike and possibly also if you drive (license plate recognition or OnStar type tracking). How is it materially different to give ownership of that to your local municipality (who already knows where you live and probably how much water/electricity you use)? Municipal government is probably the one you have the most control over.
