Spot on, anyone with a TIS subscription can flash a correctly signed factory file in to an L5P, GM haven't restricted that.
What will make things even more interesting is when the CAN bus becomes encrypted (2020 I think I read), Maybe like Dodge do now they will have a gateway module on the OBD-II port that only translates allowed messages to pass and get encrypted so scantools continue to work but of course that mean they can block whatever they want from reaching the modules.

I guess you could argue if there was something wrong in the calibration and gm wouldn't release a fix, you would have the right to fix it yourself, but then again if it affected emissions integrity I do know? I guess the only thing we can do now is boycott gm products but I have a feeling everyone will follow along.

Yup. Long term the RPM Act will slowly become a moot point.

I agree, with the onslaught of driving automation (who is asking for this BTW) and cars connected to the internet then all manufacturers will make their cars as secure as technically possible. Boycotting GM won't do much, I doubt they will reverse what they've spent many years perfecting so the aftermarket can continue to modify their cars.

Yeah I'm really against the obsession of driverless cars, I support safetey systems that help us avoid accidents, but it's a very sad time I feel time is running out very fast for us.
I still think there are still too many scenarios to account for to make a completely autonomous vehicle, every one of these scenarios must be programmed in. Funny how Tesla gets away with literally killing people, and gm gets sued because people decided to put way to much on their key chains. Tesla gets away with it because the do gooders say they are green and saving the world from the evil corporate America.

Is this what our fathers and grandfathers said in 1970 when the hp wars began grinding to a halt in favor of emissions? Are we now the crusty old dudes?

Europe is worse, Diesel cars will be totally banned by 2025 I think it was.
