@Eka_FOOF_A nope, in #Germany Emergency Calls require a #SIM (or #eSIM, most of them have that soldered down!) and any tampering with #eCall is voiding it's certification and vehicle safety, thus making it illegal to drive.

• Cars may even actively prevent driving/fail to move if it can't communicate with it and gets a clean status, which may even include any connectivity checks.
  • So unless you were to reverse-engineer the original, per-vehicle unique eCall modem and do constant #replay attacks against the internal network, you may end up with a #bricked car.

Oh and they may even have all components serialized and encrypted like an #Xbox360 and it's optical drive!

See now why I drive a 2007 Corsa D?

@ai6yr

That's why I only bought smart home stuff that's not dependent on manufacturer infrastructure but can all be controlled locally.

Light switches...
