    Hey just a friendly reminder those Chinese EVs are backdoored with an Elon style god mode like Tesla. Lots of modern cars have a similar issue but EVs get it bad. Tl;dr rip out your car’s modem.

      I bet all the new cars are unfortunately, my VW is also constantly connected to VW.
      We need to make that shit illegal. Until then we have to live with it, just as with our smartphones.
      I know I can install AOSP and get rid of it, and I did use that for years, but I just want the hassle anymore.
