It sounds absurd now but I wouldn’t be surprised if cars are locked down like that at some point. Just look at the stuff Tesla does all the time.

- LeonB 6y agoObviously they can't turn the car off while you're driving, so they'll perform these checks either when you stop the car or when you start it. The solution then is to never ever stop the car. And you may also need to fool the onboard gps and vision systems into believing the car is moving. So in the future, a crappy old car will need to be left running 24 hours a day, in an augmented reality garage that fools the car into thinking it is on a long journey. I would like to write a science fiction story from the point of view of a sentient car in that situation. But I have to write my code instead.
