I don't think I'll ever trust the manufacturer. I always need to check for myself. There is a lot of cool stuff I have learned over the years about cars as a result.
- mikeash 11y agoWill you tear apart every future car looking for a hidden cellular module?
- teacup50 11y agoThat's a lot easier than tearing apart every piece of software in a car to look for security vulnerabilities, intentional backdoors, and private information leaks.
- mikeash 11y agoYep, but still more effort than I've heard anyone going through (besides spy agencies and the like, anyway).
- marssaxman 11y agoI'm doing OK so far just buying older cars that were never saddled with any such crap, but I imagine that when enough time has gone by that I seriously have to consider a vehicle built that comes ready-to-exploit from the factory, enough hobbyists will have figured out how it's done that ripping out the radio won't be such a challenge.
