I can’t wait to get green waves through watching youtube ads until the project gets finally killed causing massive traffic problems for the participating cities.

I’d never trust google with anything, yet alone letting it run vital public infrastructure.

The article says it makes suggestions that someone has to accept before it’s changed. It’s safe from the lights not being able to talk to each other because they’re not all talking through the same google messaging service.
