This will not be unique to Tesla. Toyota is using Kubernetes and cloud applications to maintain operation of their dashboards and entertainment systems, it makes sense that as the cost for cloud services goes down and micro controllers costs stabilize more predictive analytics will be used for all features of driving even with an ICE (Maybe especially for an ICE). The business model pulls the manufacturer in this direction as well. You no longer invest in an object materially, you pay for the license to use an object.
That's why I see this list as the last hope for open source and DIY car operation. I'm hoping we can find the right balance in divorcing a car company and its services while maintaining self-service for long trouble-free operation. Maybe even ripping the brand labels off might be the way to take care of this so that a company doesn't chase down its reputation. But they will never design a car for DIY repair and operation. Another angle to work on this is politics, but frankly I think everyone is so overwhelmed the DIY movement will get little traction for legislative and regulatory support. sean On 9/21/18, Lawrence Rhodes via EV <[email protected]> wrote: > Disabling a salvage Tesla in this way is criminal.
