When Your Car Gets The Blue Screen Of Death
from the electronics-everywhere dept
It's not a new story, but as automobiles become more reliant on new electronics systems, there are more and more stories about cars with bugs. Unlike with traditional mechanical problems, often these electronics problems are hitting high-end luxury cars first, since they are more likely to have "bleeding edge" level electronics systems in them. What's scary, though, as these electronics move further into critical systems within the car, more of these stories have safety implications, rather than just amusing anecdotes about windows that don't open.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
