samcurry.net

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.

      No. It isn’t. What we are discussing is whether or not it is useful and if there is a “good reason” to have them at all.
