Tesla Hackers Find ‘Unpatchable’ Jailbreak to Unlock Paid Features for Free::A group of security researchers claim to have found an “unpatchable” jailbreak for some Tesla vehicles, potentially unlocking in-car purchases
It makes sense for remotely provided services, like satellite radio, distant remote start via cell signal, etc. But not for hardware already in the damn car.
