New cars are bullshit. Never drive anything newer than 2007. They are worse trackers and spyware machines than smartphones. Pretty much anything with an "infotainment" screen is bad news.

My car has one of those touchscreen consoles that handles a lot (but nowhere near all) of the features in my car. Every once in a while you can see little messages at the bottom about what it's updating and the filenames tell me that it's written in Java. Like... these dense motherfuckers wrote their shit in a language that can be done in Notepad, doesn't need to be compiled, can be uploaded directly into the system with a flash drive thanks to the USB ports and then the connection for updates and remote anything physically cut. I could reprogram the whole goddamned thing.... Or I could hijack that whole fuckin' thing and write my own shit that activates on an app i deploy to my phone (fuck no I don't want to do it because I have a fuckin' life).

What's fuckin' sad is that you can get modules that you just plug right in and it disables the governors, changes how a lot of the car functions and you can buy it online right now and it's hardly more complicated that plugging in one of those diagnostic tools.

And before anyone whines about the governor on my car, it doesn't kick in until 180.

That's what I've been saying about this shit for awhile now. There's already a thriving market in hacking the crap in your car to do what you want. Sure, some of it is sketchy, but word gets around about who's dealing straight stuff. And right now it's stupidly easy to reprogram that crap. Add a few instructions on how to disable wireless stuff, both internally and physically, and you have re-secured your car while also having (most of) the electronic luxuries.

And the only governor I would want would be a rev limiter, to keep the fucker from blowing up when I'm being stupid. I generally only want a good stereo system and power windows(for the dogs) as far as electronics goes.

It has a rev limiter as well so, yeah, that one's not entirely bad. And unless I'm looking to break top speed records on a track the speed limiter isn't bad either. I mean, FFS, when am I going to go 180+?

When you're being chased.

Actually the probable reason is your tires. Unless you mount tires specifically rated for ludicrous speed, they start flying apart above 180.

My car lifts off at 180.

Disable it

On some (most?) Chevy's if you pull the fuse for the Onstar system will very likely shutdown all of that tracking and kill switch stuff.

Depending on the vehicle it will kill the onboard wifi and/or GPS systems too. But who needs that bug man shit anyway.

[ - ] Cantaloupe 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 10, 2023 21:24:16 ago (+0/-0)

It'd be worth a worldwide coordinate effort to hack it. (not that anyone here would do something like that) it's those kiwifarms and 4chin people.

Boy,have I got a suprize for you!!

Kill Switches:are already in your/all cars as of 2020 model year.

Sauce?

Your "Owner's Manual"which is located in glove-compartment of said car.YOU,were supposed to read this manual & have a firm knowledge of it's contents,BEFORE operating vehicle.

My newest car is a 2003.

Very good

That's you're problem.

[ - ] 2Drunk 1 point 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 21:52:08 ago (+1/-0)

How is it my problem that my vehicles do not have government kill switches?

[ - ] Spaceman84 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 23:27:58 ago (+0/-0)

Disregard. He's a retard. 2006 and later is when electronic fuckery took off, depending on the model of vehicle. Older platforms were not updated with such technology in most cases. They were simply discontinued after a while.

[ - ] xmasskull -1 points 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 23:39:32 ago (+0/-1)

ahh,now I see,a libtard wondering where his Govt.gibs are?

[ - ] Kozel 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 22:00:08 ago (+0/-0)

Downloaded a 2020 pdf manual of a couple of vehicles, ctrl+f for kill switch, no results.

Your reply sucks. Do you have evidence?

[ - ] xmasskull 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 22:12:10 ago (+0/-0)

Use your head,if the corp.can unlock your car from a phone call & the cops can render your vehicle inop. while it is in motion,using "stated"kill switches,the proof-look-up COPS Tv show,the cops have stopped stolen cars 3 times in different episodes using this very technique.

[ - ] Kozel 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 22:48:23 ago (+0/-0)

Not every car comes with that phone shit.

Honda Civic, for example, had the same generation vehicle from 2015 to 2020. In accordance with your claim, the 2020 10th gen civic would have a kill switch whereas the 2019 would not. I do not believe you and you have no source to back your claims.

You really think they call it a "kill switch" in the owners manual? You're retarded aren't you?

[ - ] Kozel 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 10, 2023 21:14:57 ago (+0/-0)

They don't call it anything in the owners manual because there's no mention of it in the owners manual, faggot. If there is then find it and point it out. You won't, because it doesn't exist, and also because you're a faggot.

[ - ] voatersaredumbasses 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 10, 2023 23:28:40 ago (+0/-0)

Call you it for being dumb so you have to resort to name calling? Are you 6?

[ - ] Kozel 0 points 1.3 yearsJan 11, 2023 03:30:05 ago (+0/-0)

Are you a faggot?

I did a preliminary search but could not locate anything regarding 2020 killswitches. Can you elaborate on that?

I know that there's a black box (event data recorder) in just about every car.

[ - ] SocksOnCats 1 point 1.3 yearsJan 9, 2023 23:12:39 ago (+1/-0)

Boy have I got a surprise for you!

Any car with cellular integration from 2004 on has a kill switch.

Thankfully it took a number of years before that 'feature' became standard. You can find 2011 Crown Vics and Town Cars that don't have any such tech.

zero four? Those sneaky rat bastach's. Good info-Thanks!!
