I actually think your first sentence is a spot on definition for 'bricked'. However, this specific scenario does not meet the criteria you've defined. Nobody is throwing out their car because it was only temporarily disabled. Another OTA update fixed it minutes later.

The first sentence is an example that also conflicts with a strict definition of "bricked", not something comparable to the situation in the article. The definition I was offering just appends "by you" to the strict definition and encompasses both in some contexts.
