You could similarly argue that phone makers should concentrate on making and taking calls. Turns out, that’s not what consumers care about once a certain bar is cleared (a pretty low bar; call quality is notably bad on many modern cellphones). They care more about other stuff like… being good at navigation.
This has been put to the market test in China. For EV purchases, most consumers turn out not to care about the “car” aspects beyond a certain point. If the car drives okay and has acceptable safety, what matters is the Internet-based bells and whistles.
Fix no, reduce attack surface 100%. Lets say hypotheticaly u know a foreign country is going to fuck u in the ass would you A let them fuck u with 60million dicks or B make it expensive so u are getting fucked over less.
Then he should solve the issue by requiring the code to be hosted on American servers with source code inspection.
Not by making EVs unaffordable.
Novel idea: make a car, not a cloud service. My phone is better at navigation etc anyways.

“source code inspection.”
Great idea. That way it can be put on pause indefinatly because that shit takes years.
On top of it. You can NEVER be certain anyway because there’s code burnt into the chips that you cannot read.
Why are you making stuff up? Cassinos have code audits and don’t stop working.
It’s just not the same to review code that runs a slot machine.
And code that runs a whole car.
One of the two is a whole lot more complex and probably had millions of lines more than the other.
I’ll let you guys which is which
Then make it so the manufacturer cannot just push cloud updates without permission from an oversight committee.
Raising the price does nothing at all to fix the security issues.
No. It doesn’t. Exactly. So why are you suggesting source code reviews?
