Yea but where's the fun in that? Part of the fun is worming your way through those (Usually laughable) security measures and hacking through. When the white paper came out about the Jeep Uconnect vulnerabilities I used that to eventually take near total control.

I even have the patched firmware on the canbus interface chip in the infotainment system that Chrysler was so kind as to wire it into all sorts of stuff and give it privileges it didn't need lol (That's what those articles were talking about when the researchers were able to get the brakes to stop working)

Right to repair legislation is also alive and well, state after state are passing them, even Apple themselves has been having to soften their stance over the years
