The advantages of remote connectivity far outweigh the manageable risks.

Well if you look at the other car makers, they’re all doing this. GM has already showed off a Verizon branded 4G LTE car with some form of API. Ford has something proprietary in the works. And Chrystler / Fiat are heading for insolvency sooooo I’m not really counting them.

Screamer or a headline. Content was dead. Author mistakenly did not use private API and got himself hacked.

I think this is more a once you can remotely connect to car and access it’s systems it like any connect device can be hacked. But come on it was a great screamer of a head line, so what it the article doesn’t back it up. A truthful headline would have been. “Devices that provide remote connection, have a risk of being hacked” But then it wouldn’t have got posted on Gas2 or linked here.

Since when is giving your password out to somebody considered a “flaw that makes it vulnerable to hackers”? Pretty sure that puts it under “No duh Sherlock!”
