Irina Raicu, director, Internet Ethics, joins NBC Bay Area's Raj Mathai to discuss Waymo turning in teens who were drinking, and shooting Orbeez from a robotaxi, how the incident connects to multiple societal anxieties we face today.

Raicu calls attention to the rising concern about "young people having access to powerful technologies before they have access to maturity."

"There are so many things taping us and tracking us without what's called implicit notice, so we can't really tell when we're being tracked. If there's a driver in the car with you you know you're not in private, but if you're in a driverless car, even if you sort of know that's it's probably taping, you might tend to forget," said Raicu.
