This has always been an interesting point for me. If I buy a secondhand Tesla, I've signed none of the agreements made between the initial buyer and Tesla. I wonder if I could disconnect it and hack the interface to unlock the disabled features that don't require network access, or spoof the authorization for some of those?
The Digital Millenium Copyright Act forbids some of that.
Ah yes, a shame if someone ignored it etc etc.
