Welche Folgen hat es, wenn VW massenhaft Fahrzeug-, Bewegungs- und Diagnosedaten sammelt und den Schlüssel unter die Fußmatte legt? Was verraten Fahrzeugdaten über die Mobilität von Behörden, Ämtern, Ministerien, Lieferdiensten, Mietwagenfirmen...
@tnt : I admit that there’s no particular reason why Airbus would be better.
But the 737-MAX decision to decide to fix the structural imbalance resulting from bigger engines with a software messing with pilot’s control in order to not have to go to the certification process of a new plane is completely criminal.
While everything else I saw in the automotive industry was pure incompetence (to a level that no coder can even imagine)
When I graduated as an engineer, a friend told me "How do you feel entering a plane when you know that people like us build it".
I’ve worked several years in the automotive industry and saw how software was done there.
When the 737-MAX crashed, I entered into the rabbit-hole and built a really good understanding of the software issue.
The results are:
- I don’t board a boeing plane anymore.
- I avoid cars as much as I can.
- I be sure to recommend cars with the less possible software.
