On: Encoding your WiFi access point password into a QR...

Every tesla car has a sim card and data connection that is used to connect to a vpn that high enough level engineers can use to run ssh commands directly on every tesla car at once or even target certain ones.

You know nothing john snow.

California is thankfully neutering that sort of backdoor access.

Really? Neutering it how?

Tesla already has a “Allow remote access” toggle, which defaults to OFF, that prevents you from connecting to it via the app etc.

(Whether this fully prevents Tesla connecting to it remotely, I’m not so sure...)
