Mine as my own? It depends. As of now, to prioritize the safety of me an the passengers.
When or if the self driving cars will be common or even mandatory by law I'll reprogram mine to be as daring as possible and to wipe the axe with the rules. All of the other cars will be forced by their own algorithms to avoid collision with unpredictable behaviour.

I have trouble judging any of the scenarios. I find it difficult to believe that a self-driving car would be going so fast in an area where pedestrians cross roads, that the built-in safety features of the car wouldn't protect its occupants when crashing into something. Given that, we're really comparing the ethics of a self-driving car control software failure compounded by a brake failure, vs. running over pedestrians. Given that, it's a double failure -- might as well crash the car in all cases since it should already have happened long ago, before ever picking up that much speed and risking getting that close to pedestrians.
How to slow down a vehicle whose brakes have failed is Driving 101, and I sure hope it still is today. Any manufacturer of self-driving car that doesn't have those strategies programmed into it, is 100% liable for all property damage and injury that results.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

I need a bit of hive mind help. I'm working on a proposal and one of the client requirements is that they accept the hosted solution but the data must be kept within the confines of the EU. Specifically the data must not be held anywhere under US jurisdiction.
Now, we intend to use Amazon EC2 services in eu-west region. Now, I know logically this is referencing the Irish data centre, but can we be sure that it will be physically there? The client wants some sort of assurance from us and short of getting into a slinging match with Amazon support, I hoped someone here might have a definitive answer.

By default, no matter where the data is held, because Amazon is a corporate entity with its head office in the USA, the data is in US jurisdiction. That's the practical effect of the Patriot Act, and is one of the biggest bones of contention. You can have Amazon based in Dublin and hosting data in Germany, for instance, but if the US government invokes the Patriot Act for details about a person/entity, Amazon have to supply information from that subentity.

That jurisdiction because of headquarters has not survived court challenges. And, the one test case has been challenged so far, by Microsoft. They pointed out the risks if it were to apply in reverse.
I've been staying away from US-headquartered firms because of this, regardless.

However;
Didn't Microsoft just win a lawsuit against the US Government that said they did not have to disclose details of emails stored on their Dublin servers? Admittedly they were trying to use the 'Stored Communication Act' and not the Patriot Act (not sure if the former is part of the latter) I'm no lawyer but doesn't that set a precedent that could be successfully used to prevent access to the Amazon data?

Patriot Act superseded the Stored Communication Act as the SCA is an earlier, "weaker", set of legislation.

Irish data centre in the confides of EU. Lucky there's no Brexit to worry about.. Oh wait

It's a European firm, so Irish or German makes no difference. UK hosting might be a problemette

There is no definitive answer, as at the end lawyers are involved...
However - according to Amazon:
Quote: Q: Where is my data stored?
A: You specify a region when you create your Amazon S3 bucket. Within that region, your objects are redundantly stored on multiple devices across multiple facilities. Please refer to Regional Products and Services for details of Amazon S3 service availability by region.
Q: How do I decide which region to store my data in?
A: There are several factors to consider based on your specific application. You may want to store your data in a region that…
...is near to your customers, your data centers, or your other AWS resources in order to reduce data access latencies.
...is remote from your other operations for geographic redundancy and disaster recovery purposes.
...enables you to address specific legal and regulatory requirements.
...allows you to reduce storage costs. You can choose a lower priced region to save money. For S3 pricing information, please visit the S3 pricing page.

I guess in light of POH's comment you are going to be looking for a purely EU hosting organisation with absolutely no ties to the US, good luck with that.

Maybe this links answers your question: EU Data Protection - Amazon Web Services (AWS)[^]:
Quote: Customers can replicate and back up content in more than one Region, but AWS does not move customer content outside of the customer’s chosen Region(s), except to provide services as requested by customers or comply with applicable law.

As an american company Amazon is subject to FISA Court warrants. Unlike the public cases (Microsoft and Ireland) FISA warrants are secret and carry gag orders. If there's a way to get to the data from a US location then it doesn't matter where the disks drives reside. amazon cna be compelled, in secret, to deliver whatever the Court wants. And being a FISA warrant, you don't even know the data has been seized.
Just to make it more interesting, the FISA court almost never turns down a warrant request from US security agancies. Don't count on checks or balances, but if you wan't any asurances from the US you have to "pay to play", which involves donations to special foundations and speaking contracts in the multi-millions USD.
Your data would be safer in Russia. At least there you can just pay off a few people to leave you alone. It's a lot cheaper.
