[QUOTE="Makobra, post: 16351032, member: 193575"] Here's the first set of problems off the top of my head: 1. who's going to pay for the connection? 2. who's going to guarantee the connection? 3. HOW can you garuntee a connection? 4. how can you legally mandate that the customer must update? 5. the only way to shut down a thing without being able to talk to that thing is to build INTO the thing a self destruct/shutdown protocol on a timer 1-3 is defeated easily because that dog won't hunt. and when i say won't i mean WON'T. its untenable. 4 is a big legal no. we own our property. period end of discussion. 5 is the only way to reliably handle this which can not only be undone programmatically but would spur the ire of the average consumer hereto unknown you guys are talking about what is possible technologically in theory which in no way translates to the real world. if your truck lives in a metal skinned garage or is in a rural area the problems of the proposed ideas become crystal clear immediately. no need to freak out. not only are tuners not going away but it will only get easier to tune cars. mark my words. but hey we're talkin software and I'm just a senior software developer.
