California Now allows Google's Self Driving Cars To Be on Roads

Self-driving cars now legal in California

 Google's Cars now legal in California

Governor Edmund Brown signed the bill Friday. This lets these cars’ drive on the roads. The cars work off of many different technologies. It has radar sensors in the front, and artificial software that steers. Before this Google was already testing them in Nevada which passed a law last year. Both laws require a person to behind a wheel in case they need to take control. With the software driving there has been no wrecks.

I believe that the cars are a good idea but I feel it could hurt the world. Just think of how many people would be out of jobs because of this event. Taxi drivers are important in all major cities in the United States. What will they do? Also I believe it will make the world much much lazier. This affects me because my dad works at BMW and if they stop making cars then he won’t have a job. I rely on him, and many other children’s/families work at places like that.

This affects the world because the whole world will have these cars. Everyone will want one, soon everyone will have one. This affects Google because they will be rolling in a lot of cash. Also the company’s that Google get to make these cars will be greatly affected.  Google will be paying those companies’ a lot of money. This also brings me to a point that all companies will be put out of work. Such companies as ford, Lincoln, Honda and many more will be put out. Where will those people work at? I mean as it is now there aren’t any jobs. What are people to do when that many just shut down.

Weekly Current Event

The topic of my Weekly Current Event is Germany Wants Public to Stop Using Internet Explorer
I got this article from Reuters.

The article is mainly about how the German government wants Germans to stop using Internet Explorer. They want this due to a bug they found. The bug makes peoples computers vulnerable to hacking and viruses. Microsoft didn't say how long it was going to be until a new update it will be in effect.

I believe all the hacking and viruses are getting to the point of soon the internet’s just going to break. Well not literally of course but soon a lot of people are going to become frustrated with it all. I mean every time I get on the internet I get warnings about potential threats. It’s getting harder and harder to pick out harmful websites. These viruses and websites that distribute them are going more under the radar all the time. This affects me because I’m an internet user too. I need the internet every day for my school work. Also many people have social networking accounts that they use every day. There are over 800 million active users on Facebook alone. I think Germany’s government made a smart decision to try to tell the public to not use internet explorer. It was very helpful and if I had the choice I would have done the same. Microsoft should be getting an update to fix the bug, soon.

This impacts the world greatly because people all over the world use the internet every day. It’s crucial that the internet is safe to use.  Also without the internet the world would go crazy. It’s how we look up information. It’s how we stay connected with each other. This affects Germany because now many people are changing their browsers.  This could make people not ever use internet explorer again.
