I'm just one of those guys who does their leg work and makes them look good.

One good thing about the FCA hacking (and now other makes which are making headlines) is that engineers should see a whole new perspective in regards to the vehicle's safety systems versus the "infotainment" systems ... and have no interaction between them ... or at the very least ... securely firewall the two from each other.

It remains to be seen how it will go.

But hey ... at least all of us KL owners have an out if we get into an accident that authorities say is our fault. We can point to these articles and scream, "Honest officer ... the car just had a mind of it's own. Someone hacked me!"

Yeah, I know. They aren't likely to buy it.

for my part.. i am pretty good at security ISSO/ADMIN (comsec) too with lots and lots of experience .. or was good.. im retired now and care less if i even use this laptop.. easiest fix i can see is just separate the two computers.. shared power supply is all that is needed..
