this is exactly what henry ford wanted to happen i did a seance and checked in with him
I remember a few years back when farmers were in the news for using Russian hacks to get around this type of shit in their John Deere tractors. I thought, surely that won’t become a problem for regular cars… That was back when I still had some faith left in humanity to overcome capitalism’s bullshit.
It was actually Ukrainians that provided the John Deere hacks.
Russia only makes problems for Ukraine to solve, it appears. Lol

Does anyone know what the screen actually says? Just curious.
It says something about call this 1-800 number for help and we’ll send a tow truck if needed

They need to have a solution in place other than brick your vehicle. Even if it only allows your nav to go to the nearest dealership or some shit. Will it be ignored? Yup, but at least I can get to my job. Or to my house where I can, ya know… Update.
Imagine being in the middle of a desert when this happens.
Don’t care. If I buy a car and your software makes the decision to disable it, fuck you forever and you’ll never see another nickel from me. If you sold me a car that isn’t safe to drive in the first place, fuck you forever and you’ll never see another nickel from me.
Oh the turntables…

More like them overtaking the controls at the moment and driving you off the road, whatever there is a bush, a hole or a guarding rail with nor reason no care at all
Imagine only having one copy of the system so when a situation like this occurs, you lack the ability to automatically switch to a working one, re-download and retry, without danger of this occurring.
This was fixed a decade ago with Android. They could have literally taken the source code from aosp and added it, or at least converted it (if in different programming language), and never had this issue. It would cost $0 and minimal time. But no. That won’t ever happen. It’s built ford tough.
