Re: So....

Zog just like it was only 2 engineers that were responsible for VW cheat code. Even though Bosch caught it and warned VW. Yep it was done with out their knowledge.

kain preacher

They are stealing our faked test.

Cops suspect Detroit fuel station was hacked before 10 drivers made off with 2.3k 'free' litres

kain preacher

It's called fraud because no one saw you use the library card This was at the pump. So it's either just theft of theft by fraud. I mean if he actually walked and hand the clerk a library card then I would have to say yes he did nothing wrong(or the clerk is stoned as hell)

Re: Note to my fellow Yanks ...

Re: A relentless self promoter

Read Can bus is use to connect all of that stuff. Yes you can access the can bus via the obd-II port. My point still stands . If you have and wi fi or cellar data as part of your infotainment system the then can bus is exposed .

Oh look a can bus logger that works through the OBDII port.

CAN bus is one of five protocols used in the on-board diagnostics (OBD)-II vehicle diagnostics standard. The OBD-II standard has been mandatory for all cars and light trucks sold in the United States since 1996.

"USB/WiFi/whatever protocol converters are CAN"

I never did. What I said is it can be accessed via wifi. OBDII . You don't have to use the dedicated serial port to access CAN

Oh look VW puts the infotainment system on the CAN bus

http://www.volkspage.net/technik/ssp/ssp/SSP_238.pdf

Oop looks like can bus is access via the OBD II port and is part of the specs.

CAN bus is one of five protocols used in the on-board diagnostics (OBD)-II vehicle diagnostics standard. The OBD-II standard has been mandatory for all cars and light trucks sold in the United States since 1996. The EOBD standard has been mandatory for all petrol vehicles sold in the European Union since 2001 and all diesel vehicles since 2004

Re: What exactly does he mean by this?

"Well, if he's tapping the OBDII connector and exclaiming "Look at all the data that's being shared!", that would be just silly. Like breaking into someone's house by smashing a window with a brick, hiding behind the bedroom door to eavesdrop, then complaining that their intimate conversations are not secure. Just silly."

infotainment systems like the ford sync 3 are connected to the ecu via can bus . They are also equipped with the ability to give you internet via cell network. SO what is being sen over the cell network back to the hive ?

kain preacher

Re: What exactly does he mean by this?

In your rush to make him look like a fool you show your lack of knowledge.

"Which physical layer interface did he tap into? CAN bus? The OBDII socket (<- betcha)"

Can bus is not a physical interface but a protocol. Some can bus networks can be accessed via blue tooth,wi fi, USB and Ethernet on cars. Accessing the OBII port allows you all kinds of access to the ECU and whats running on it.

And yes you can use wire shark to sniff packets on the can bus.

https://www.csselectronics.com/screen/page/reverse-engineering-can-bus-messages-with-wireshark/language/en

https://canb.us/tutorials/Wireshark

But there are also free packet sniffing tools for can bus. Available for Linux and windows

Re: Isn't he supposed to be ...

Cue it depends on the state and the crime. Most states have restrictions on concurrent sentence and max time. It's not this sledge hammer you think it is.

Re: "Where does the 4 to 6 interchange take place?"

I feel you. I made the mistake and signed up for mediacom(con). They charge you $5 to use their cable modem. $5 a month to turn on Wifi and $5 a month to have access to the modem. Seriously if you type ion 192.168.1.254 it redirects you to page that says pay $5 to have access or pay $5 every time you want to do some thing like change the password to the wi fi. They have a strict 1 gig cap . Oh here is the kicker if you do a trace route you find out that every thing is going through comcast first. That's right they are using comcast network but comcast is not available here.

In a 2016 telecom report conducted by ACSI, Mediacom occupied last place in customer satisfaction among all companies in the ACSI, regardless of industry.

Well that's another fucked thing I've noticed Netflix seems to prefer windows. I get those login from different computer when I'm on mint I get those notices but not on windows 10, I've also noticed that I have to manually select 1080 in windows if i'm not using edge .

kain preacher

I've found that netflix works best with edge. I've found from time to time it has weird issues with other browsers especially chrome.

At tthe federal level you do 80% of your time .

Since when do you have a 1st amendment right to harass some one, lie about them and not have legal consequences? Also when you are on parole you have your rights further limited and you have conditions.

Re: 8 years?

"Not mentioned in the article but does he get to serve the remainder of the 37 months consecutive with the new sentence?"

Typically it's consecutive unless the judge and the prosecutor are pissed at you.

the 8 years is because he is a repeat offender. They gave him 3 years the first time He could even wait two months after he got out of jail

GDPR forgive us, it's been one month since you were enforced…

kain preacher

One thing that amused me is that according to at least one lawyer, geoblocking the EU won't actually absolve an organisation of legal liability if they don't comply with GDPR and someone in the EU uses their service (e.g. using Tor or a VPN).

Would that be computer trespassing if I say I do no not want people from the EU and to lie to hide that you are in the EU

Judge on Microsoft gender discrimination case finds 'flaw' in class grouping argument

kain preacher

TIgra 07 re so wrong about the gender pay gap. First of they don't just compare wages but they compare Jobs. IE they look at a Women that are doctors then a man that are doctors then they compare wages. They calculate by the hour not by total wage which would take in to account if a man works more hours.

So to say it's cause choices women make is bullshit.
