This is the most insane thing I ever read. I saw it the other day and thought "how stupid", GM just loves to shoot themselves in the foot.

I call it the "Micro$oft syndrome", it all started when Micro$oft made it a point to address software rights and ownership, not that the concept wasn't around before then, it is just that Micro$oft being such a large and powerful player seemed to etch it into stone for all to follow.

Ownership is a state of mind it would seem, not a tangible achievement.

Perhaps EFILive will be forced to write a complete OS that is flashable to the controller and remove GM's OS completely, just a thought.
