That’s security theater for you…

Oof, yeah, didn’t think about that. Much more complicated.

We need a wiki of EVs that.has a section on each model enumerating which components are used to spy on you and videos showing how to neuter them.

I have been thinking we need something like this but for all new vehicles, not just EVs. Like instructables but for how to locate and rip out the cellular radio/antenna on every make and model that has one.

Yes, this will definitely happen

To be fair, if you’re ordering from Amazon, your personal info was already “part of the Amazon machine.”

Did you order it using your Amazon account? I think they pre-configure them for you unless you say “this is a gift” when ordering.

You can have end to end encryption over the wire and still have all of your shit harvested at the “endpoints”

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

Thanks! Lol

Makes sense. Even just being able to easily change it on your own would go a long way. I have a hard time seeing public key cryptography really catching on for something like this, but maybe it will.

I’m curious. What would make a different number more secure than a SSN?
