I think VW had it right when you had to do it manually. But I’m not sure that’s still the case.

Anyone even accidentally remote disable my car, even if fixable, can go fuck themselves. Not interested, pass.

If I had a car that had suddenly stopped working due to a careless update, I’d want it to be bricked so I could make the manufacturer pay for a different fucking car.
