Researchers jailbreak a Tesla to get free in-car feature upgrades::A group of researchers found a way to hack a Tesla’s hardware with the goal of getting free in-car upgrades, such as heated rear seats.
Because it’s cheaper for them. Building all the cars the same simplifies production and inventory management. They don’t have to configure each car for the end users requirements; they just use software to turn these features on.
The question that should be asked is if they can put these features into the car and still make a profit why are these added features so expensive as all the fees are 100% profit!
Then just sell that one model and enable everything. Otherwise don’t complain when hackers crack the box and enable the features.
Oh I agree with you and am not defending this practise. Was just trying to explain why it’s done.
No no I know. Don’t worry. LoL. This reply wasn’t directed at you. It’s just what’s on my mind. It feels good to vent.
