>It’s concerning that people aren’t thinking of attackers (or the govt) taking over your car first on HN. Yup. I am quite concerned at how capable newer cars are, sans an equal level of security and safety consideration applied. There are going to be some ugly things happen, then we will see a correction. For now? No way I plan on owning anything networked, drive by wire. And so many things are coming long before we get great self-driving vehicles. In fact, I think they will be requirements to ease the transition to them, due to the reduced complexity when humans are not part of the equation. "We have geofenced your car, due to erratic, incompatible, [insert irritating justification here], driving patterns." "Your car has been speed limited for your safety..." Yeah. Gonna be fun.
