    Chinese chips in the cars can be designed to be hacked from afar to turn them into espionage machines.

    And when you connect your phone to the onboard system, now your phone gets jacked.

    It’s nightmare fuel for security.

    Bummer because we need more cheap EV’s.

      *nation-state chips

      Saying that the good ol’ America aren’t doing the same is keeping your head in the sand.

      *Big* Tech really falls into the devil you know vs the devil you don’t. Their all shit sandwiches, take your pick or go hungry.

      Not yelling at clouds, just being realistic.

      About your connecting phones to cars, you’ll have to allow perms as to what data is shared right? My 2011 VW has Android Auto, but no onboard Sim, how are VW making off with my data?

      EDIT: Above between **, see below for further information.

      Teslas were banned in areas of China for the same reasons as @[email protected] mentioned here. https://searx.tiekoetter.com/search?q=tesla+china+bans
