- miki123211 2y agoUnlike Waymo, hotels can't really bar the bad actors from staying in any hotel ever again. At some point, the people who tent to leave a mess in Waymos just... won't be allowed to ride in Waymos any more.

This would reductively mean a more effective form of punishing vandalism, which would in of itself be a slight net good overall. In the ideal case, there would be a recompense program to pay for the damages made + extra, in return for being able to ride them again. Meta-point: This discussion has significant overlap with busses/trains/public transportation. How we deal with bad actors in that space would translate well into this space.
- ModernMech 2y agoNo, the point was that billing the damage to the malicious actor in question will prevent damage. But for some people, a fine is just the cost of doing the thing. And for every bad actor you ban, there's another bad actor willing to take their place.
