Does anyone know what the play here is?(Is it given that there's a play? Waymo is culturally a little distinct from Google so from personal experience I can't actually rule out that they're just doing this coz they think it would be good for the world).
I would bet it's part of the larger campaign by credit card companies to make contactless payment the only option for as many things as possible.The more people use it, the easier it is to remove alternatives. Then everyone's movements and spending habits are tracked.
