Seen at CNN:
The feature, to be offered in 2009 model cars, will allow call-center operators in Detroit to remotely cut off engine power in OnStar-equipped vehicles that are reported stolen - helping police in hot pursuit of thieves to collar perps.”
I can see this being incredibly handy in combatting car theft and in reducing the number of high-speed chases broadcast on Fox News.
However, how long will it be, you think, before the first cracker starts shutting down cars for fun and profit?
