I see the suggestion for adding a data connection to the Karma frequently in the "features we want" type lists, and I have had cars with this feature before. But after reading this article on Wired, I am wondering if it is such a good idea, particularly in the case of the Fisker Karma where almost all the controls are just inputs to one of CAN networks, as opposed to a mechanical connection to the actuator. The idea of network security being implemented by the same programmers that brought us the Karma's NAV system makes me very very nervous.
So if this feature is ever implemented, don't be surprised to see my Karma driving past with tin foil strategically applied to cover the data antennas.
