Therefore you really have no choice but to employ the best security you can to well-and-truly LOCK people out of those screens. I suggest that, at a minimum, you need to combine a Ranger's individual password with a time-synchronized token such as those by RSA. Moving to two-factor security where one item (password) is something the Ranger KNOWS, but the other item (60-second numeric code on token) is something the Ranger HAS, is a very large step up. And it won't be very hard to program into the car's OS. There are other, even more secure, solutions, but this one works and has a very reasonable cost.
And anyway, the RSA fobs were hacked a few months ago so they aren't very secure to start with.
@neroden: buying a product doesn't give you a right too any and all proprietary information behind that product; it also doesn't give you a right to publish any of that proprietary information should you manage to access it.
I would also remind you that everyone expects a certain level of civility here on TMC; GeorgeB is a fellow member and IMO your aggressive tone is not appropriate. Further to that everyone realizes that in his position GB is totally unable to respond in any sort of manner the way another member would have. That makes your aggressive behavior a cheap shot.

When I buy the car I want to see that information about my car.
I don't really mind right now since I'm still waiting, but in the future I'd like to get access to this info.
And you can bet the priority of making it go away is higher than it was due to this thread.
I would bet that there has already been a model s bought and taken apart for reverse engineering, and many more are going to be facing the same fate. It would be very naive to think otherwise. Technology this SUPERIOR to what everyone else has to offer gets the attention of the competition VERY fast.
