Nerdy (and long) but interesting article on network vulnerabilities in modern cars.
Basically, with all of the CPUs in use now in modern cars, there are security issues that need to be addressed. A very nerdy read, but interesting.

I'd be more worried about the remote attacks now possible on medical equipment

I guess my 85 911 an 86 El Camino are safe from automotive viruses. The medical industry need to get on top of that RIGHT NOW.

I am reminded (rather painfully) of Repo Men, a.k.a. Repossession Mambo.

Good read's.
Of the opposite, reminds me of years ago we purposely made an electrical shocker for the car door handle. Very easy to make but won't spill too much of the details. You can make a single shot zap using a high load capacitor or go continuos with a 12v to 120v inverter. Call it cruel and illegal if you must but I'm tempted to do one again for fun on a 911. Bait the bandits and catch the laughs on camera.
