I haven't pressed "Agree" yet and this is the first wave of non-DuARTe devices

They can fugg off

Well now “they” know about the battery short and will plan ahead. Way to opsec, ya dingus.

I thought I recognized that name

Yes.

I mean they’re clearly trolling

How does he charge the phone, inductively?

You're not hacking a car via fault injection alone though. You can probably crash and reboot the ecu, but there's no way you'd manage predictable control over which bits you're flipping.

Also because ground on a car is so dirty, the electronics are well isolated.

If you have any evidence of this actually being possible, I'd love to read it.

clips to the mainframe

I'm in

You dont need a direct line to the hardware if you're just forcing bit flips through a large magnetic field. That's why they hook to the frame; it's the largest piece of metal.

What you describe is physically not possible. A vehicle chassis is a ground plane for the entire car, and not hooked into any communications. It's also a really really noisy ground plane thanks to the alternator and engine.

If they're plugging into the obd port or some other part of the car giving them access to the canbus, sure. They weren't only connecting to the chassis though, they need some sort of network access.

NO WAY THEY LATER MADE THE PHONE COMPLETELY USELESS LOL.

The headlights aren't on the underside of the vehicle, where they were attaching their device. It was only possible with some mid 90s early 2000s cars where they had computers sophisticated enough to control certain things like acceleration and steering, but not new enough to have thought of hardening against this extremely technical type of attack.

IIRC, it was an episode of the Motherboard series "Phreaked-Out" that showed this off.

When you spend your life arguing with people on Hacker News you don't need that other stuff

Looks like they didn't.

Wtf, no. You've seen people hacking a car via a headlight connector because it's on the canbus (in car network). You've absolutely not seen people just clipping to the frame.

Did they remove the wireless charging shit, too? If not, I wonder if someone can use that to hack the phone, cuz I've seen things about hacking onboard car computers by just clipping something to the frame of the vehicle and working off the same idea that those electrical line internet routers work to change voltages in the computer chips and basically send machine code to it to control things.

Hmm, apparently Edge still supports Manivest v2: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/extensions/developer-guide/manifest-v3#manifest-timeline-for-microsoft-edge-and-partner-center

The text reads like it's been AI-generated, so not sure if any of this information is worthwhile or up-to-date, but it seems to be the official source for this kind of information, so I would hope they'd update it, if anything changed...

Sorry for the late reply but yeah I am able to block elements on edge still. I went on https://www.sonyalpharumors.com/ which I think is a relatively obscure site? I don't think I ever used static filter rules so I cant comment on that.

Can you show us where the adblocking is? I just went through all my vanadium settings and found nothing.

I'm not sure I think it's enabled by default. look in the settings to be sure. works pretty well on my grapheneos pixel 8

it's just built in

Really? Didn't seem to to me; I just installed latest GrapheneOS on my pixel 9 this weekend, and Vanadium definitely let Google Adsense crap all over many sites I visited.

Is there a way to enable effective ad blocking that I missed?
