Uber Hires Charlie and Chris, the Famous Vehicle Hackers

As Uber grows, they are looking at further developing autonomous, self-driving cars, and they hired the famous vehicle hackers, Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek, to hopefully make those vehicles strongly hacker resilient.

Car hacking is very possible and the dangers are very real.

Looking forward to starting Tuesday with the great team at @Uber Advanced Technology Center. Should be a cool challenge and a lot of fun.
