EPA & open source

2015-09-21 15:18:55.687583+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

The headline is perhaps a little inflammatory: The EPA Opposes Rules That Could’ve Exposed VW’s Cheating, but it's not wrong. If we mandated open source ECU code, there's a chance we could have found this stuff. Instead we DMCA hide it, making it easier for miscreants and ne'er do wells to conceal misdeeds.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
