Russael Posted July 22, 2015 at 03:02 PM Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 at 03:02 PM Someone posted the Prius hacking on here some time ago... looks like those guys are still at it. The bright side is they appear to have found these vulnerabilities first and are sharing them with the manufacturers, rather than someone who is truly malicious and starts causing accidents. While all the wireless features are cool and convenient... there is no such thing as "completely secure" when it comes to a computer.

That would solve the issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
