ANY computer can be hacked...that has any kind of EXTERNAL CONNECTION...even then it can

After decades of comuter news where they report infected/hacked/etc...folks here think not hackable...AMAZING to me
Ask if anyone has anti-virus software on their computer, cell, etc....even MAC's...
Part of my amazement is that there is little difference between today's vehicles vs any
personal computer...heck even Target/IRS/etc with their $Million plus buck servers gettin
hacked...why do folks think vehicle OEMs who think "El Cheapo" for most components
would choose high end computers and software????
