So researchers magically know in what bit of code the next scandal will be?
Next time it might be the simulation software that's not even in the car. Lets release that to.
Or should we ask them to only release the exact bit of code with the issue?
Besides which, do we even get the EFF is not crazy enough to ask for them to publish their source code and destroy their IP?
They just don't want the anti-circumvention measures in the the DCMA to apply. The right to access what's in our hardware.
Not the right to force people and companies to do things they don't want to. This is not government run voting hardware.

Emissions, performance and service related scandals will almost certainly not originate in the entertainment system or the navigation system. Security issues might originate there if the other side is not properly designed. So ECU, ABS, ODBII and such should be fair game and 'inspectable'.
- scott_karana 11y agoConsidering what we've heard about not-so-airgaps in Chrysler's hacked ECU + onboard entertainment systems, would it be so far-fetched that other systems would be used to game testing, if only ECUs were mandatory to be open? ;)
