He's a nice honest fellow and notified the company.

System users really need to change their passwords. Password = “password” or “abc123” just don’t cut the mustard any more.

I’m looking forward to the video of a guy getting a BJ from his girlfriend while driving. That’s the real reason Teslas crash on autopilot.

Should this be listed under “SHOCKING!!!!” No worries, onstar can do pretty much the same thing.

LOL!

Didnt see that comin!

I think he just created his own job.
I can’t imagine anything more strange, more disturbing than to have my car locked and my predicament laughed at via some camera I didn’t even know about.
This should not be up to the customers to prevent.
Some drivers may like the Tesla, but not be tech savy enough to change their status of exposure.

BTW, Don’t forget to pre-order your “smart gun”! Supplies are limited so order now! Technology will make sure you, and only you, can operate the firearm! Safety first because it is, of course, “for the children”!

Using the camera to spy on the driver while they … drive. Yippee 🤪

Double your security by changing the password to "Password". People are just lazy to use all lower case letters.

His first message was

All your Tesla base are belong to us.

David Colombo, who is based in Germany, shared the feat on Twitter saying the fault does not fall on the Elon Musk-founded company, but on owners of the Teslas

Sounds like he’s working for Musk and his insurance company.

Many videos of this online and not just BJ's. Of course, those are intentionally recorded.

[LaMudBug]

I think that (bJ) is probably the reason Senator Ted Kennedy drove off the bridge.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

What? Our leaders weren’t chaste and pure and leading exemplary lives like saints?

I’ve led a sheltered life.

He could’ve started his own Valet parking service.

[SaxxonWoods]

Brilliant career move.

Wonder if Musk is going to grant an exception since it is third party software and give the kid the 1 million dollar bounty and free car for hacking a Tesla.

It is a standing offer.

Given this kids savvy in how he announced it not being an ass about it he will likely be receiving a job offer and be moving to Texas, I suspect...

Can’t get to me in the F-150.
