    So, if someone were to completely disconnect their Tesla from the internet, they could keep autopilot for free?

      The car itself probably will not work without internet, and they can brick it at any time remotely.

      I doubt you could cut it off from the internet completely either.

        You could disconnect it in such a way that the car would just think you didn’t have reception. A lot of people would get stranded on road trips if they didn’t let you drive without internet.
