The Reckless Tolerance Of Unsafe Autonomous Vehicle Testing: Uber's Culpability For The Criminal Offense Of Negligent Homicide, Helen Stamp

This Note shall explain both problems and offer a possible solution to each. Section I discusses the history of computer crime law. Section II presents the circuit split and offers a solution.
