Pravosodno ministrstvo ZDA ima zdaj formalizirano delovno skupino, ki proučuje vpliv samovozil, interneta stvari itn. na nacionalno varnost.

The U.S. Justice Department has formed a threat analysis team to study potential national security challenges posed by self-driving cars, medical devices and other Internet-connected tools, a senior official said.
The new group's goal is to secure the so-called "internet of things" from exploitation by “terrorist threats” and by others who might try to hack devices to cause loss of life or achieve political or economic gain, according to Assistant Attorney General John Carlin, head of the Justice Department’s national security division.
He cited the July truck attack in Nice, France, in which 86 people were killed, as an example of how automated driving systems could present a national security threat if they were remotely hijacked.
"The internet on wheels ... clearly is going to present national security risks as this transformation takes place,” Carlin said.
