Re: OTA Updates for Cars

Why single out Tesla? Just because it uses electricty to power the engine doesn't make it any more or less vulnerable to a control system hack than an ICE car. The hacks which have been carried out so far have been on things like Jeeps, not Teslas. Every car with onboard electronics and OTA (which these days means most new cars) is vulnerable.
