Making access to a vehicle dependent on a cloud service also adds security vulnerabilities that didn't exist before to real world objects. Perhaps Tesla should partner with the MPAA to create a public service announcement about this. I can imagine:
"You wouldn't steal a web server..."
- shiftpgdn 5y agoIt’s not dependent. You have a physical keycard that lets you start and drive the car. The app also lets you start and drive the car with no internet over Bluetooth. The only thing not working here was the OTA remote administration of the car. The article is misleading.
- dane-pgp 5y agoYou're right, I apologise. I (meant and) should have said something like "making the car's security dependent on", in the sense of a weakest link, or additional attack surface.
