This is a surprise? I saw this coming long ago. The only reason we are getting “smart” everything is for the manufacturers to add new revenue streams.

What sort dystopian hell are Ford aiming for.

I'm just waiting for a tech company to add eye sensors to their device that pause the unskippable ad if you look away. Like that episode of Black Mirror.

HAHA Car tuners will be still around but instead of giving us more power by hacking the ECU, it will be to hack the on board advertiding modules!! HAHA!
