Any 'connected' car, and that includes one that can download updates for it's sat nav, has all the hardware there to allow the possibility of being remotely reconfigured. Whether they have installed software to implement that but not told anyone you'll probably won't actually know. From Google Ford has submitted a patent that see self-driving cars driving themselves back to the showroom if finance payments are missed. The patent application, titled “Systems and Methods to Repossess a Vehicle”, was filed back in 2021 but only recently published by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

Organgrinder Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Makes me wonder about the possibility of a Chinese manufactured car being "switched off" in the event of any nastiness between us. That's why they lost the contract to build Nuclear Power stations for us. Don't know what to expect from all the faceless ones in this day and age.

Motorways will soon be for buses/coaches and lorries/vans transporting goods around the country; private cars won't be allowed to use them - 15 minute cities remember!

Its as if people make up things, or at best totally misunderstand. I heard that Oxford Council are planning to bring in a new song that all residents have to sing on their doorsteps at 8am every day before they are all marched down to the soylent green mines to start their 16 hour shifts. Wake up sheeple. Edited March 11, 2023 by HeHasRisen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
