Protip for anyone thinking of being politicians/whisteblowers or public figures in the future.

Do not buy any car and drive it if it has a drive by wire system and/or any way to connect to any networks or internet.

All they have to do on these cars is cut the brakes electronically, steer is slightly in one direction and floor the accelerator, most of these are automatic cars too so they will go to their top speed until you crash and die. They will also have control over your fuel pumps so enjoy a nice fire after the crash too.

If this does happen to you do not take the key out, make sure your seatbelts on and your body is relaxed and pull the handbrake and try put the car into Neutral, you might have push down a shift lock button.

Modern cars dont have handbrakes. It electronic parking brakes now so they can probably control that too. I dont believe they can be activated anyway after a certain speed.

Shows what I really know, newest car i've owned is a 2005. Drive by wire with manual handbrake.

Yeah I have a stick shift same year as yours with a hand brake. Everything now is automatic and computers control it all.

What cars have this? Anything modern I assume?

Pretty much, anything mid 2000s onwards could be a candidate but do research on each car and i cant be fucked doing that unless i was going to buy it

Journalist murder American-style starting not even to raise eyebrows now, sign of lost freedom. In Russia you get a bullet through the head. Here you get untraceable, high-tech suiciding or car-hacking. But it's exactly the same thing. It's good that Chris Sign is burning up the web. Let's never lose our outrage people. Only when we lose that is all lost.

That the Clintons did Christopher Sign, and let's not kid ourselves, they did, knowing full well that the "Clinton Body Count" yelling would be deafening, shows just how above the law they feel. They just don't care.

Michael Hastings, 2013.

It’s a power move. Letting everyone know they are back in control to some extent.

Remember when the Mercedes techs got a hold of the wreckage and analyzed the onboard computers?

I can tell you all new MB vehicles CPC/ECUs are now encrypted and part of the key is the serial/VIN which was put forward to avoid this . essentially they spoofed the OP codes for the car so if a certain OP code to the CPU so make the car go flat out.

What do you mean exactly?

About which part? The second part of what I said can be figured out using reverse engineering tools like IDAPRO. The first part prevents it. Look at a cobb accessport. This works by overriding the cars ECU with a different non stock tune. Now, what they did to Hastings car was similar - yet nefarious. Aka they found the CPU OP Code that is i.e brake and set it to null no matter the input - set his throttle to 100% at any degree of depress - etc. They remote controlled his car in this way by taking it over after reverse engineering the cars OP Codes.

Now this is MBs response... Encrypted ECU that must match the cars VIN... i.e if the car needs a new ecu you cant just go to the junkyard and pop another one in.
