Silicon Valley Software Stupidity

Business Insider: Hacking has suddenly become a big concern on the car business. Hackers showed a Wired reporter how they could take control of a Jeep, and now another hacker has revealed how to gain access to a Tesla Model S. Hackers have revealed a vulnerability in General Motors' OnStar system. Where will it end?

OK, software project managers at Tesla.  If that Musk guy wants to connect high energy vehicles to the web while running, tell the Musk guy to take a hike.

Who is Musk that wants hackers in our robots?  He thinks rockets fly backwards!  This is your boss. You lose 4k per car you sell, and live off of Jerry Brown socialism.

Rules on Airplanes and race cars:

Do not conect high speed bots to the friggen web, get it?  If my robot needs to get on the web, I have a simple method. I take the robot home, stop it, plug in my SmartCard and my smart card and the company smart card will arrange a secvure software upgrade.  Smart card security is the only hack proof access to the web, use it/ If you do not have a smart card system, call CardLoix, they sell them.

Seriously, the next time I hear a story about some stupid softweare group connecting the robot to the web, I am going be an embarrassed  human.
