This doesn't read like something that actually "disables remote access", but something that tells Tesla "please don't allow your personnel to remotely send commands to my car".
- userbinator 3y agoThere is something amusingly ironic about Tesla being able to add this feature remotely: they can also change or remove it completely at any time.
- 1letterunixname 3y agoThis brings up a number of concerns. 1. EOL - I'm wondering how "vintage" and "obsolete" models will be handled. Let's suppose parts go NLA, it would be curious to see if mobile apps would still work, which parts can be changed, and what feature(s) would stop working. 2. Tesla's ability to disappear or introduce features and changes in behavior over time 3. Ability or inability to stop, pause, or revert software updates 4. E2EE 5. Encryption of on-board data at rest 6. Encryption of phoned home data at rest 7. Telemetry data on-board 8. Telemetry data phoned home Perhaps there ought to be a r2r requirement of open source schematics, bill of materials (BOMs), and firmware for vehicles no later than when parts become NLA.
