Careercow Elon Reeve Musk - Tesla, SpaceX and Twitter owner + ex-paypal CEO. Manchild, sexual deviant, spergy autist with access to space travel

Having a government pseudo official (as of Jan 6th) capable of remotely watching you and interfering with your personal vehicle is serious Big Brother dystopian shit. This on par with commmunism and fascism.

No fucking way. Never buying anything associated with Rocket Retard.

It's not just Teslas. Almost any modern car with cruise control can suffer from "unintended acceleration" under the right circumstances.

 

[Lord Xenu]

You know almost all modern cars have been collecting telemetry data for at least 10 years now, right?

Either forcibly sever it or demand an opt out. God, do I need to go neck car dealers or are you pulling my leg.

It's worse than just telemetry, which automakers (arguably) have a reason to collect data on.

Court rules automakers can record and intercept owner text messages

A federal judge on Tuesday refused to bring back a class action lawsuit alleging four auto manufacturers had violated Washington state’s privacy laws by using vehicles’ on-board infotainment systems to record and intercept customers’ private text messages and mobile phone call logs.

The Seattle-based appellate judge ruled that the practice does not meet the threshold for an illegal privacy violation under state law, handing a big win to automakers Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and General Motors, which are defendants in five related class action suits focused on the issue. One of those cases, against Ford, had been dismissed on appeal previously.

The plaintiffs in the four live cases had appealed a prior judge’s dismissal. But the appellate judge ruled Tuesday that the interception and recording of mobile phone activity did not meet the Washington Privacy Act’s standard that a plaintiff must prove that “his or her business, his or her person, or his or her reputation” has been threatened.

In an example of the issues at stake, plaintiffs in one of the five cases filed suit against Honda in 2021, arguing that beginning in at least 2014 infotainment systems in the company’s vehicles began downloading and storing a copy of all text messages on smartphones when they were connected to the system.

An Annapolis, Maryland-based company, Berla Corporation, provides the technology to some car manufacturers but does not offer it to the general public, the lawsuit said. Once messages are downloaded, Berla’s software makes it impossible for vehicle owners to access their communications and call logs but does provide law enforcement with access, the lawsuit said.

Many car manufacturers are selling car owners’ data to advertisers as a revenue boosting tactic, according to earlier reporting by Recorded Future News. Automakers are exponentially increasing the number of sensors they place in their cars every year with little regulation of the practice.

Wait until they hear about the audio recording. Video too on some of the newer models.

Good news, Musk says the fiery but mostly intact Cybertruck will get back on the road.

Moving the VIN plate to another car doesn’t count as “buffing out the scratches”.

 

[Wafting Breeze]

You don't understand. If the truck didn't parse your driving patterns, record your voice, save your spotify playlists, and measure your ass print it could potentially be used for peaceful purposes in a crowd of people. This is all for your own safety.

 

[MadStan]

Shot himself, eh? Would you call that an honorable or dishonorable "Discharge"?

 

[Badungus Kabungus]

Bros, I wouldn't be surprised if this was a false flag by the dynamic duo of Musk and Thiel. Who else could hijack the Cybertruck and remotely drive it somewhere without too much hassle?

Most likely this will be used as an excuse to strip Americans from even more civil rights and implement more surveillance everywhere. Thiel gets his surveillance state, and Musk gets to brag about how his Cybertruck is "bomb proof," plus sympathy points from being the "victim" here once his shills spin this as an "anti-Elon" attack.

God is doing everything He can to make Elon penniless by the end of this year, huh

First thing to do with any new car is to rip out the telematics unit and sell it on eBay to some pleb.

A lot of the time it's linked with other systems.
But usually due to different frequencies/cell carriers in different countries you can open them up and remove the cellular modem.

Sadly I like the almost-self-driving on my current car, but I think it requires data. I may try and see if I can just put a switch in to turn off the cell connection most of the time.

 

[Rozzy]

I hope nobody was right behind the glass doors and we just have one well cooked suicide bomber.

For the first in my life I will say.
This is a false flag attack.

 

[MirnaMinkoff]

I think this was going to commit suicide and decided to make political commentary on his way out. He was a long serving special forces, guess he wanted to make a statement when he blew his brains out.

He might have felt he spent fifteen years of my life all just to make Trump and Elon richer and import pajeets. A big “fuck you bastards” before eating a bullet.

(Going to guess martial problems, substance abuse and mental issues are also the biggest factors, but might as well make a big statement on his way out.)

ETA: I’ll guess since he was on leave he might have been having issues within his career/ within the command structure and was no long rising through the ranks, or worse, just hanging on.)

Yeah yeah yeah "Just rip out the modem", easy "solution" sure, but not a solution. I really don't consider telemetry turned off unless it is also not stored locally. Call me when you figure out how to disable local telemetry memory in your cars computer, car computers shouldn't need to know anything more than RAM anyway.

Yeah, it depends on the car. If you're handy with electronics you can override what data goes into the telematics system and send false information using something like an ESP32. Feed it random garbage instead of actual telematics readings, but pass-through data from other systems unmolested.

For the first in my life I will say.
This is a false flag attack.

It does smell very off. The "explosion" seems to have been mostly demonstrative, it wasn't designed to cause damage. The driver's psychological profile also doesn't match his alleged actions.

He could've been dead for days and kept on ice, then shoved in a Cybertruck and remotely driven to the destination. For all we know that Matthew guy died on some secret glowie mission in Ukraine.

 

[YOU'RE TAKING TOO LONG]

What are the chances the Cybertruck was driven there remotely with a dead guy in the driver seat? Explosion could've been triggered remotely. For all we know the driver was the victim and the explosion was the red herring.

Like, this would be the timeline:
1. Some random guy rents a Cybertruck to go on vacation or some other benign reason
2. Feds track him down, shoot him in the head, load Cybertruck with fireworks bomb
3. Feds remotely drive him to Trump Tower and remotely detonate the explosive

Weekend at Burny's?

 

[Cool Dog Returns]

Maybe someone had some incriminating shit on this guy and gave him the choice of doing this or it gets released, but what can be worse than be labelled a terrorist?

Glad my buddies who moved to legoland are doing their part paying for all the niggers gibs

Musk keeps tweeting about how shit immigrants have been for Europe. What's cognitive dissonance?

Overcompensating for sounding like a soyjak defending the jeets, distracting his cockriders, keeping the boomer voters happy, 32-dimensional tictactoe

Timing is very suspicious too, after Elon's autistic meltdown and alienation of his enablers.
But then we have always known the Cybertruck was a bomb.

I can see the ad now; "Discount cybertruck, only used in one terrorist attack."

Delete the GPS connection too. It will still have velocity information and maybe direction depending on compass availability. But accuracy of dead reckoning falls off rapidly over time.

Or, you know, just get an older car.

Since it's your car and not like a truck using electronic logbooks you could easily disconnect the GPS antenna and spoof direct input there without running afoul of any laws, unlike a GPS jammer/faker that actually broadcasts.

I live not far from a highway, I've considered pointing an SDR receiver at the road and seeing what tracking I can do with people's car hotspots, bluetooth, TPMS and other shit they broadcast constantly.

Hell, I just realized I get some of that already from a 433MHz receiver I have, 'Schrader-HEXCODE' from peoples TPMS show up in my feed apparently.

I know some dickrider is going to buy it.

Its sad how in modern society we have people willing to grovel at the feet of absolute morons like Elon Musk because of all the digits in his bank account
