Fascinating article, didn't know skip lagging was a thing or that it is illegal. It definitely shouldn't be, just seems to be government protecting entrenched corporate interests at the cost of the populace. aka par for the course.
So if you buy a Tesla and the T&Cs prohibit you from hacking it/modding it, then you decide to hack away at it anyway, what happens if Tesla were to brick the online features of your vehicle and/or completely cancel you as a customer?
I mean the whole point is that Telsa should not be able to brick the car you purchased because you changed something in your car. Why does a car come with conditions?
Granted I may not be in the demographic for a telsa, i wouldn't ever want my car connected to the internet.
In america the current legal standard is that you go and get fucked. You do not have a right to something you have purchased anymore as long as the seller puts enough magic fine print together.
