I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

The journey was a first of sorts, and under other circumstances, it might have drawn more attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last October, almost exactly two years after Otto’s highly publicized \u003ca href=\"https://www.wired.com/2016/10/ubers-self-driving-truck-makes-first-delivery-50000-beers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Colorado beer run\u003c/a>, Levandowski climbed into the driver’s seat of a Toyota Prius in San Francisco, headed north across the Golden Gate Bridge, then kept going all the way across the country, ending at New York City’s George Washington Bridge less than four days later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t an all-time speed record, and it wasn’t the first time someone made a mind-numbing cross-country drive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The unique part of the trip, which wasn’t disclosed until December, was that Levandowski’s vehicle was outfitted with advanced driver-assist technology developed by his latest startup, \u003ca href=\"https://pronto.ai/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pronto\u003c/a>. Levandowski and the company say the vehicle made the entire trip “without any human intervention,” save for refueling and rest breaks. The trip, \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/pronto-ai/pronto-means-ready-e885bc8ec9e9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Levandowski explained\u003c/a>, was part of realizing “my life’s passion to make the life-saving potential of autonomous vehicles a reality.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pronto, which like Levandowski’s Otto is marketing a self-driving system for the trucking industry, published \u003ca href=\"https://vimeo.com/306969319\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a time-lapse video\u003c/a> of the trip. After downloading it and watching it frame by frame, a few interesting patterns emerge:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Pronto system, or at least the version used for Levandowski’s drive, has a lead foot.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Levandowski sets out across the Golden Gate Bridge, which has a highly publicized 45 mph speed limit due to a history of deadly crashes, his vehicle quickly accelerates to 55 mph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Dunton, a Pronto spokesman, said in an email last week “the vehicle’s speed was set by the system and was based on the surrounding traffic flow and posted speed limit, among other things using Pronto’s proprietary technology.”On the Golden Gate Bridge, he said in essence, that by exceeding the speed limit by 10 mph, the car’s software was just keeping up with faster traffic and trying to stay safe and legal. Dunton points out the video shows Levandowski’s Prius is passed repeatedly by faster traffic in the three northbound lanes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they were going 10 mph slower, they would have impeded traffic, which is against California’s basic speed law,” Dunton said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Does that argument hold water with the California Highway Patrol, responsible for enforcing the speed limit on the bridge?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No. Absolutely not,” said CHP Officer Andrew Barclay, with the CHP’s Marin County unit. “They could be pulled over for speeding at that point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barclay said the state’s “\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=VEH§ionNum=22350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">basic speed law\u003c/a>” — “no person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent having due regard for weather, visibility, the traffic on, and the surface and width of, the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of persons or property” — would not apply in the situation Dunton described.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dunton didn’t address the numerous other occasions the Prius is seen speeding as it crossed the country, except to say “they generally drove with the flow of traffic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pronto — Italian for “road boulder”?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company’s video shows Levandowski and his Prius hanging out in the left lane, aka the “fast” lane, for inordinately long stretches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, at mile 151 of the trip, on Interstate 80 near the Sierra foothills town of Colfax, the vehicle takes to the left lane. And stays there. And stays there. And stays there. All the way across the mountains, through Reno and well beyond, even as faster vehicles pass on the right. The car finally returns to the right lane just east of the town of Fernley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about why the Pronto system didn’t return the vehicle to the right lane to allow passing, as courtesy and the vehicle code would dictate, spokesman Dunton explained that the software was set to avoid possible conflicts with traffic entering the roadway from the right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the purposes of this early demo, (the team) wanted to maximize the chances of achieving this amazing milestone and therefore decided to have the car drive in left lane for a significant portion of the trip to reduce the number of merges with traffic,” Dunton said.Why reduce the number of merges? Read on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Houston, we have a problem. With merging.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last December, after announcing Pronto’s successful cross-country road trip, Levandowski took The Guardian’s Mark Harris for \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/dec/18/controversial-engineer-i-travelled-over-3000-miles-in-a-self-driving-car\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a 48-mile ride-along\u003c/a>. Harris said the system performed “safely and competently,” though Levandowski was forced to take control of the self-driving Prius at one point because it “failed to merge into busy traffic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What can go wrong in a merge?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pronto video, brief as it is, shows one harrowing example, a little more than 40 minutes into the trip, as Levandowski and his Prius attempt to merge onto eastbound Interstate 80 off of Highway 37 in Vallejo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Prius heads up the ramp – and up a moderately steep grade where entering vehicles are required to merge left as the number of freeway lanes is reduced gradually from six to four – the vehicle briefly accelerates to 72 mph. However, the Prius remains in the far right lane to the point where it ends and the vehicle is forced to move to the left. By that time, the vehicle is rapidly overtaking a much-slower-moving dump truck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One imagines this was an “oh, shit” moment for Levandowski, who was at the outset of a 3,100-mile trip in which he hoped not to touch the vehicle’s controls except when he needed to gas up, pee or sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What the car did, apparently with no input from him, was brake dramatically on the freeway – slowing to just 17 mph, according to the video – to avoid rear-ending the truck. The video doesn’t show whether there was traffic immediately behind the Prius or whether other vehicles were also required to slow down. Eventually, the merge was completed and the Prius went on its way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[dropcap]B[/dropcap]eyond depicting the apparently successful road trip, the Pronto video carries another message that may be relevant to Levandowski’s current situation and his attitude toward it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The message comes in the video’s sonorous voiceover. An unidentified, uncredited voice intones words identified at the end only as “poetry by Charles Bukowski.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"vimeo-player\" src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/306969319\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, the audio of the reading is borrowed from \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/user/SpokenVerse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tom O’Bedlam\u003c/a>, a sort of YouTube \u003ca href=\"https://www.rogerebert.com/rogers-journal/youtube-and-the-cinnamon-peeler\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cult figure\u003c/a> known for his taste in verse and his memorable reading style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The “poetry by Charles Bukowski” is a mash-up of two well-known pieces, “\u003ca href=\"https://thebestamericanpoetry.typepad.com/the_best_american_poetry/2008/11/the-laughing-he.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Laughing Heart\u003c/a>” and “\u003ca href=\"https://wordsfortheyear.com/2014/04/08/roll-the-dice/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roll the Dice\u003c/a>,” by the late Los Angeles poet. Both poems speak of the necessity of seizing the day and making one’s life count for something. The latter piece, too, talks about pursuing dreams regardless of the cost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We’re guessing the poetry was chosen and hacked together because of the line “if you’re going to try, go all the way” — you know, like the Prius in the video as it completes its cross-country ramble in the unromantic morass of a morning commute into New York City.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the lines that get your attention, read in funereal tones over video images of Levandowski’s vehicle racing across the United States in frantically sped-up motion, are a little farther down:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“… go all the way.\u003cbr>\nthis could mean losing girlfriends,\u003cbr>\nwives, relatives, jobs and\u003cbr>\nmaybe your mind.\u003cbr>\ngo all the way.\u003cbr>\nit could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.\u003cbr>\nit could mean freezing on a\u003cbr>\npark bench.\u003cbr>\nit could mean jail,\u003cbr>\nit could mean derision,\u003cbr>\nmockery,\u003cbr>\nisolation. …”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Really?

The journey was a first of sorts, and under other circumstances, it might have drawn more attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last October, almost exactly two years after Otto’s highly publicized \u003ca href=\"https://www.wired.com/2016/10/ubers-self-driving-truck-makes-first-delivery-50000-beers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Colorado beer run\u003c/a>, Levandowski climbed into the driver’s seat of a Toyota Prius in San Francisco, headed north across the Golden Gate Bridge, then kept going all the way across the country, ending at New York City’s George Washington Bridge less than four days later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t an all-time speed record, and it wasn’t the first time someone made a mind-numbing cross-country drive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The unique part of the trip, which wasn’t disclosed until December, was that Levandowski’s vehicle was outfitted with advanced driver-assist technology developed by his latest startup, \u003ca href=\"https://pronto.ai/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pronto\u003c/a>. Levandowski and the company say the vehicle made the entire trip “without any human intervention,” save for refueling and rest breaks. The trip, \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/pronto-ai/pronto-means-ready-e885bc8ec9e9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Levandowski explained\u003c/a>, was part of realizing “my life’s passion to make the life-saving potential of autonomous vehicles a reality.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pronto, which like Levandowski’s Otto is marketing a self-driving system for the trucking industry, published \u003ca href=\"https://vimeo.com/306969319\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a time-lapse video\u003c/a> of the trip. After downloading it and watching it frame by frame, a few interesting patterns emerge:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Pronto system, or at least the version used for Levandowski’s drive, has a lead foot.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Levandowski sets out across the Golden Gate Bridge, which has a highly publicized 45 mph speed limit due to a history of deadly crashes, his vehicle quickly accelerates to 55 mph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Dunton, a Pronto spokesman, said in an email last week “the vehicle’s speed was set by the system and was based on the surrounding traffic flow and posted speed limit, among other things using Pronto’s proprietary technology.”On the Golden Gate Bridge, he said in essence, that by exceeding the speed limit by 10 mph, the car’s software was just keeping up with faster traffic and trying to stay safe and legal. Dunton points out the video shows Levandowski’s Prius is passed repeatedly by faster traffic in the three northbound lanes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they were going 10 mph slower, they would have impeded traffic, which is against California’s basic speed law,” Dunton said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Does that argument hold water with the California Highway Patrol, responsible for enforcing the speed limit on the bridge?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No. Absolutely not,” said CHP Officer Andrew Barclay, with the CHP’s Marin County unit. “They could be pulled over for speeding at that point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barclay said the state’s “\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=VEH§ionNum=22350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">basic speed law\u003c/a>” — “no person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent having due regard for weather, visibility, the traffic on, and the surface and width of, the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of persons or property” — would not apply in the situation Dunton described.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dunton didn’t address the numerous other occasions the Prius is seen speeding as it crossed the country, except to say “they generally drove with the flow of traffic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pronto — Italian for “road boulder”?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company’s video shows Levandowski and his Prius hanging out in the left lane, aka the “fast” lane, for inordinately long stretches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, at mile 151 of the trip, on Interstate 80 near the Sierra foothills town of Colfax, the vehicle takes to the left lane. And stays there. And stays there. And stays there. All the way across the mountains, through Reno and well beyond, even as faster vehicles pass on the right. The car finally returns to the right lane just east of the town of Fernley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about why the Pronto system didn’t return the vehicle to the right lane to allow passing, as courtesy and the vehicle code would dictate, spokesman Dunton explained that the software was set to avoid possible conflicts with traffic entering the roadway from the right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the purposes of this early demo, (the team) wanted to maximize the chances of achieving this amazing milestone and therefore decided to have the car drive in left lane for a significant portion of the trip to reduce the number of merges with traffic,” Dunton said.Why reduce the number of merges? Read on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Houston, we have a problem. With merging.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last December, after announcing Pronto’s successful cross-country road trip, Levandowski took The Guardian’s Mark Harris for \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/dec/18/controversial-engineer-i-travelled-over-3000-miles-in-a-self-driving-car\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a 48-mile ride-along\u003c/a>. Harris said the system performed “safely and competently,” though Levandowski was forced to take control of the self-driving Prius at one point because it “failed to merge into busy traffic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What can go wrong in a merge?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pronto video, brief as it is, shows one harrowing example, a little more than 40 minutes into the trip, as Levandowski and his Prius attempt to merge onto eastbound Interstate 80 off of Highway 37 in Vallejo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Prius heads up the ramp – and up a moderately steep grade where entering vehicles are required to merge left as the number of freeway lanes is reduced gradually from six to four – the vehicle briefly accelerates to 72 mph. However, the Prius remains in the far right lane to the point where it ends and the vehicle is forced to move to the left. By that time, the vehicle is rapidly overtaking a much-slower-moving dump truck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One imagines this was an “oh, shit” moment for Levandowski, who was at the outset of a 3,100-mile trip in which he hoped not to touch the vehicle’s controls except when he needed to gas up, pee or sleep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What the car did, apparently with no input from him, was brake dramatically on the freeway – slowing to just 17 mph, according to the video – to avoid rear-ending the truck. The video doesn’t show whether there was traffic immediately behind the Prius or whether other vehicles were also required to slow down. Eventually, the merge was completed and the Prius went on its way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__dropcapShortcode__dropcap\">B\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>eyond depicting the apparently successful road trip, the Pronto video carries another message that may be relevant to Levandowski’s current situation and his attitude toward it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The message comes in the video’s sonorous voiceover. An unidentified, uncredited voice intones words identified at the end only as “poetry by Charles Bukowski.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"vimeo-player\" src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/306969319\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, the audio of the reading is borrowed from \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/user/SpokenVerse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tom O’Bedlam\u003c/a>, a sort of YouTube \u003ca href=\"https://www.rogerebert.com/rogers-journal/youtube-and-the-cinnamon-peeler\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cult figure\u003c/a> known for his taste in verse and his memorable reading style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The “poetry by Charles Bukowski” is a mash-up of two well-known pieces, “\u003ca href=\"https://thebestamericanpoetry.typepad.com/the_best_american_poetry/2008/11/the-laughing-he.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Laughing Heart\u003c/a>” and “\u003ca href=\"https://wordsfortheyear.com/2014/04/08/roll-the-dice/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roll the Dice\u003c/a>,” by the late Los Angeles poet. Both poems speak of the necessity of seizing the day and making one’s life count for something. The latter piece, too, talks about pursuing dreams regardless of the cost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We’re guessing the poetry was chosen and hacked together because of the line “if you’re going to try, go all the way” — you know, like the Prius in the video as it completes its cross-country ramble in the unromantic morass of a morning commute into New York City.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the lines that get your attention, read in funereal tones over video images of Levandowski’s vehicle racing across the United States in frantically sped-up motion, are a little farther down:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“… go all the way.\u003cbr>\nthis could mean losing girlfriends,\u003cbr>\nwives, relatives, jobs and\u003cbr>\nmaybe your mind.\u003cbr>\ngo all the way.\u003cbr>\nit could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.\u003cbr>\nit could mean freezing on a\u003cbr>\npark bench.\u003cbr>\nit could mean jail,\u003cbr>\nit could mean derision,\u003cbr>\nmockery,\u003cbr>\nisolation. …”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Really? Jail? Homelessness? This vision of building a self-driving vehicle could mean losing your family, livelihood, sanity and freedom?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You wonder if that’s where Anthony Levandowski really saw his career and life heading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That included breakthroughs in lidar, a key piece of technology that enables self-driving cars to detect what’s around them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the Waymo trial, Kalanick conceded that Uber needed to develop self-driving cars if it hoped to maintain its early position as the world’s largest ride-hailing service. But he denied that he ever resorted to stealing technology from Google, whom he believed was an ally until he began to suspect the company intended to launch its own ride-hailing service consisting entirely of its robotic vehicles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kalanick also testified that his push to build a fleet of self-driving cars for Uber led him to start wooing Levandowski in 2015 while he was still at Google. Levandowski left early the following year to devote his time to Otto, a self-driving truck company he started with another Google employee, Lior Ron, who also left. Uber bought Otto later in 2016 for $680 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Waymo, which spun off from Google in 2016, alleged that Levandowski downloaded 14,000 documents containing its trade secrets before he left for Otto.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber denied knowing anything about those documents, but eventually fired him after he repeatedly asserted his constitutional right against self-incrimination leading up to the trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ehrlich’s statement Tuesday said Levandowski downloaded the documents as an authorized Google employee and never brought those files to Uber or any other company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whiff of potential wrongdoing in Waymo’s civil case became even more pungent following the disclosure of allegations by a former Uber security specialist, Richard Jacobs, that the company employed an espionage team to spy on Waymo and other rivals while creating ways to conceal any stolen technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google also pursued a separate case against Levandowski in arbitration proceedings, which resulted in a panel ordering Levandowski to pay the company $127 million, according to disclosure made by Uber leading up to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11746290/ubers-stock-dips-in-early-trading-after-market-debut\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">its IPO\u003c/a>.

That included breakthroughs in lidar, a key piece of technology that enables self-driving cars to detect what’s around them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the Waymo trial, Kalanick conceded that Uber needed to develop self-driving cars if it hoped to maintain its early position as the world’s largest ride-hailing service. But he denied that he ever resorted to stealing technology from Google, whom he believed was an ally until he began to suspect the company intended to launch its own ride-hailing service consisting entirely of its robotic vehicles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kalanick also testified that his push to build a fleet of self-driving cars for Uber led him to start wooing Levandowski in 2015 while he was still at Google. Levandowski left early the following year to devote his time to Otto, a self-driving truck company he started with another Google employee, Lior Ron, who also left. Uber bought Otto later in 2016 for $680 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Waymo, which spun off from Google in 2016, alleged that Levandowski downloaded 14,000 documents containing its trade secrets before he left for Otto.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uber denied knowing anything about those documents, but eventually fired him after he repeatedly asserted his constitutional right against self-incrimination leading up to the trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ehrlich’s statement Tuesday said Levandowski downloaded the documents as an authorized Google employee and never brought those files to Uber or any other company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whiff of potential wrongdoing in Waymo’s civil case became even more pungent following the disclosure of allegations by a former Uber security specialist, Richard Jacobs, that the company employed an espionage team to spy on Waymo and other rivals while creating ways to conceal any stolen technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google also pursued a separate case against Levandowski in arbitration proceedings, which resulted in a panel ordering Levandowski to pay the company $127 million, according to disclosure made by Uber leading up to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11746290/ubers-stock-dips-in-early-trading-after-market-debut\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">its IPO\u003c/a>. Uber may be held liable for paying all or part of that as part of guarantees it made in its Otto acquisition, but believes it may be able to get out of those obligations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Levandowski left Uber, he started another self-driving startup called Pronto, which said Tuesday that he would no longer be its CEO as he defends himself against the charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story has been corrected to remove reference to secrets being sold to Uber.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"info": "For decades, the process for how police police themselves has been inconsistent – if not opaque. In some states, like California, these proceedings were completely hidden. After a new police transparency law unsealed scores of internal affairs files, our reporters set out to examine these cases and the shadow world of police discipline. On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
