dumb cars will be worth their weight in gold soon
You could just find and disable the wireless modems.
You'd probably have more luck installing a signal jammer in your car.
The best you can hope for is a rootkit and some Linux-based OS for cars to be developed so you can take full control.
i fucking KNEW we would be jailbreaking cars eventually.
and you bet they will come up with locked bootloaders.
Also, jammers are illegal pretty much everywhere.
FWIW there is a cottage industry for OnStar disable/delete mods for GM vehicles. It can be done, usually without breaking too much else of the car's electronic functionality.
I'd rather poke the GSM modem with a screwdriver.
if you can find it, and all it's backups..
