Having a computer in your car that you can't control yourself, can spy on you, track you and in some cases even be used to take control of other sub-systems is fucking stupid. Its even more stupid when the company that is supposed to "support" said computer basically never fixes anything, security or otherwise and even if they did they would probably charge you for it.

From the post:
>Runtime application security firm Oligo earlier this year revealed that its researchers had discovered potentially serious vulnerabilities in Apple’s AirPlay wireless communication protocol and the accompanying SDK, warning that they could allow hackers to remotely take over devices. AirPlay is used by Apple products, but the tech giant has also licensed its use to other vendors, which have implemented it in TVs, audio systems, and streaming devices.
Yea! Complexity! This is why the more complex systems get, the easier it becomes to throw a monkey wrench at it and it breaks.
