All this BS Tesla pulls, I’m surprised no one has published a Tesla “jailbreak” yet.
Tesla Hackers Permanently Jailbreak Paywalled Features
A team of four hackers put an end to Tesla’s microtransaction-style features via a security chip exploit.
I’d be game for ads if it took $5k off sticker lol
And therein lies the problem ☝️
Cars are fucking expensive.
Would I take a $5k discount on a vehicle for Ads-In-Vehicle? Absolutely.
Would I then invest less-than-$5k in DIY aftermarket ad-block? Absolutely.
If you think a shitty company like Tesla wouldn’t instantly stop your car from working if you did that, you’re even more gullible than your comment suggests
If 5k is the difference between a car you wouldn’t buy and a car you would buy, you need to buy a car you can afford, not a car you want

Presumably, the hack would involve segregating the car from the Tesla network and disabling any auto-lock feature. Otherwise, sure, its not worth much as a hack.,
But we’ve solved this problem in DRM-locked video games for decades. We’ve even got pirated backend servers, for hosting illicit versions of MMORPGs. This isn’t an unsolvable problem. It isn’t even an unsolved problem.

Particularly for low end models, $5k translates to a lot of car. The difference between a $10k vehicle and a $15k vehicle is substantial.
10k car go brrrr
15k car go brrrr
🤷
But which one’s A/C still works?
