The understanding that has been gained of accelerated vacua sheds new light on the classic issue of the self-force suffered by a uniformly accelerated charge. Moreover, the fact that, as a result of quantum theory, the radiative decay of an excited atom can be viewed equivalently as the result of the vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field or as the result of the radiative self-force of the electron is shown to be nontrivially linked with the equivalence principle.
