Google's Waymo asks curt to BAN Uber's self driving cars

Waymo, Alphabet's self-driving spinoff from Google, has asked a judge to block Uber from operating its self driving vehicles in the latest round of a row over sensor technology. Earlier this year Waymo sued Uber and its autonomous trucking subsidiary Otto, claiming over 14,000 documents relating to its self driving car sensors were stolen by a former executive. Today, Waymo said it would seek a preliminary injunction against Uber in the high-profile intellectual property lawsuit during a hearing in San Francisco on April 27th, according to a court filing.
