Hacking Kia: Remotely Controlling Cars With Just a License Plate
samcurry.net
On June 11th, 2024, we discovered a set of vulnerabilities in Kia vehicles that allowed remote control over key functions using only a license plate. These attacks could be executed remotely on any hardware-equipped vehicle in about 30 seconds, regardless of whether it had an active Kia Connect subscription.

    You know what fuck builtin nav. Connect it to my phone and let that be it for navigation.

        I like using the built in radio rather than my phone for music, but it doesn’t need an internet connection, just a flash drive.

        I suppose I’m a weirdo for not using Spotify like most people nowadays though

          A bit, I have a huge collection of CDs ripped to MP3 that are nowhere else digital streaming

          I find the weird weird thing is to listen to local radio or satellite radio. I only do it for short trips where the radio turns on automatically and it’s not worth the time to put decent music from the phone.

      Plus if you use your phone for nav you can use whatever maps you like. My city is mapped pretty good on openstreetmap so that’s what I use.
