> There will be a time when modern connected car I own no longer receives software updates while it otherwise would remain a great daily driver. Each passing day it becomes more vulnerable to being hacked to perform variety of things. What is the level of risk that I am willing to accept before having to get rid of the otherwise good car since I no longer feel safe operating it? I had a laugh last night watching an episode of The X-Files. This is a show that's all about conspiracies and not trusting the government and relying on hackers, yet the show (likely due to a product placement agreement) had Scully conspicuously turning on a car's wifi hotspot and connecting to it. I'd think that the main duo of that show would be tech savvy enough to know that such a thing (since it's connected to microphones, cameras, GPS, and the internet) would be anathema to remaining clandestine.
