Anything that requires executing arbitrary untrusted code from arbitrary untrusted sources automatically is bad and is definitely not filling the same role as server side CGI.

Yes. It should be the FCC enforcing their regulatory duties against specific car models not the house legislating in general. The amount of interference on the low frequency bands that some electrical cars produce prevents reception of AM.
