I was thinking the other day - always dangerous - and have not seen a post on this but I'm never the first one with an idea - so here goes - - -
There is a big EQ in California - it's 2055 and they don't want anyone driving - so they get all the auto manufacturers to send a out code disabling all electric vehicles. Since almost everyone leaves the cars on - you're stuck. And given no car has been sold in CA that is not EV and not remotely programmable since 2040 - literally 60% of the population is locked in place.
Or, you've broken the law and are trying to isolate yourself - but - your car makes that impossible - and they can immobilize you and obtain your position.
Tesla is not a government - so is what they do government action? How does the Bill of Rights interact with your car? There is nothing on this yet - and apparently - TESLA can still access your car even if you've turned off the links.
This should be a significant privacy concern.
