But as soon as there's a BGP hiccup/attack, a fire at the relevant data center, a moron with a backhoe, among other eventualities, you're screwed. Autonomous vehicles (as well as those with drivers) need to be, as the name says, autonomous. Not dependent on some online resource. I'll say it again: Vehicles should not be dependent/accessible/updateable over the Internet. Full stop.
