Well, the concerning thing for me is less the hack as much as this connected system having these capabilities in the first place. A dealer should not be able to open and start my car without my keys (or a copy of them), a physical lock pick or a pry bar…
I love the innovations that are being created in this late stage capitalism hellscape.
The flaws also exposed car owners’ sensitive personal information, including their name, phone number, email address, and physical address, and could have enabled attackers to add themselves as a second user on the targeted vehicles without the owners’ knowledge.
