Your modern car with GPS is hackable, has been hacked, and will be hacked, come one day


Most people do not know that their GPS system is actually a radio transceiver that not only gather coordinates, but also relays control and command information to the ECU, which controls all digital aspects of the car.

The more digital the car, say like the BMW and Tesla, which are nearly 100% digital, to even the door handles to get out IN AN EMERGENCY.

With a cell phone, this is what you can do, with the GPS code of the car

  • Your car's battery can be drained
  • The engine can be turned off while in motion
  • It can also be sped up to maximum speed
  • Lights, doors, radio, cell phone can all be turned off or one, 
  • etc etc etc

All the above can happen whether you, the driver, are driving the car or it is parked in your driveway. The more digital the car, the greater the control.

Any government agency or police force has this software. They also do not publicize this ability. Who would buy modern cars if someone with a badge decided you needed to go away, like Michael Hastings went away, right into a tree at over 100mph?

We live in an era where digital technology for airplanes, like the QRS11 death chip, can take down any plane in the world. The same exists for modern cars, if they were made after 2004.

That accounts for most cars on the road, nowadays.

hacker going by the name L&M says he has hacked into more than thousands of accounts belonging to users of GPS tracking apps, giving him the ability to monitor tens of thousands of vehicles - and even turn off the engines for some of them, while they're in motion, according to Motherboard
He has admitted to hacking into more than 7,000 iTrack accounts and more than 20,000 ProTrack accounts, two apps that companies use to monitor and manage fleets of vehicles through GPS tracking devices. He has tracked vehicles worldwide, even in countries like South Africa, Morocco, India, and the Philippines. The software on some cars can be used to turn off the engines of vehicles moving at 12 miles per hour or less.






Screenshot of one hacked account
L&M reverse engineered the ProTrack and iTrack Android apps to find out that all customers are given a default password of 123456 when they sign up. After finding "millions of usernames" the hacker then blasted them all with the default password. He wound up getting access to thousands of accounts as a result.

And don't think or say, because your GPS screen doesn't work or you don't use it, it means you are safe. THESE THINGS ARE ALWAYS ON, RELAYING YOUR INFORMATION AT ALL TIMES TO THE NSA AND CIA.

They have these scanners, that look like light poles-but the do not emit light-on every major freeway and highway going both in or out of town. These scanners constantly communicate to GPS systems in all cars. Your ECU is designed to ONLY WORK if the GPS transceiver is working.

So you see, it is on. Doesn't matter if you use the thing or not. Or if your disk reader is broken. One has nothing to do with the other. The ECU is the master controller of all digital based car systems, ON ALL CARS BUILT SINCE 2004.

You simply cannot undo it. Car won't run then. that's a fact.

If the ECU stops getting that transceiver ping, no starting the car. Ever.

FROM THE INTERNET


It’s too late.
Your car already records just about everything you do in real time (samples once a second) and tracks it by location:
When you put it in gear
what your speed is
When you open a door
When you close a door (and which one it is)
When you apply breaks
ALL your contacts (if you link your phone via Blue Tooth)
A comprehensive record of EVERY call you have ever made from inside your car.

How many of you realize that many modern cars have no mechanical linkage between the steering wheel and the front wheels - it’s ‘drive by wire’ (same as commercial jets)?
Your car can be commandeered at any time, and is the most comprehensive surveillance device ever used against you.

And that boys and girls is why I drive a 20 year old car with no onboard GPS crap in it.

DARPA can do more than turn off the engine on cars.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKpYh1IZGkg

Depends on how many computer controls your car has, I'd keep that 80s pickup truck if you can.
