Calvin (from Calvin & Hobbes) sitting at a lemonade stand, smiling, with a sign that reads, "Trains and micromobility are inevitably the future of urban transportation, whether society wants it or not. CHANGE MY MIND."

In Europe ( i mean Paris, France and Italy ) public authority had pushed hard on micromobility, but now they are, in reality banning it cause safety problems.
you spelled "Karen complaining" wrong, the bans of e-scooters were basically just aimed at appeasing the 50+ demographic
Mostly, but not only.
Probably you misspelled "most of them, but not everyone"
GDPR doesn't prevent you making a recording as a private citizen of a public space on a local device in the car with a 1 week rolling buffer.
Well, not spying on people is also an option
Regulating in a manner to ban them. Driverless cars are not technologically ready right now. GDPR, is the bare minimum privacy protection, as a lot o citizens required.
