> And all because you couldn't come up with a universal plug for car entertainment systems. It will have absolutely zero impact on their bottom line sales to stop updating their carOS, since they have been doing it for years already and have never done it in the past. Every car with bluetooth / cellular / wifi support has to, by design, contain a computer to provide that service. Every car with a dash more sophisticated than dials has a computer in it. Nobody has ever considered the security or ethical consequences of these wholly proprietary computers in their cars, and in the same way modern John Deere tractors are complete black boxes with no ability for quote unquote "owners" to inspect, audit, modify, or replace the software part cars have been the same way for years, even if the computer hasn't given you an obvious touchpad UI to notice it.
