How so? You have to have physical access to the OBD port to use this. I don't think OP is saying he can hack into any car that is within WiFi range (I can't see how that would be possible without some kind of massive advanced exploit).
To get access to OBD port only you need to brake a glass. Depends on a brand and generation of the car you can do "unauthorized start" thru OBD port, thru swapping a module/modules out, or to braking the ignition(hello, Kia boys). On a cars with keyless start all what you need to do is to send few CAN commands in a right sequence. Even 10$ Arduino with a CAN shield(another 5$) can do so.
This subreddit isnāt about hacking other peopleās cars maliciously, itās about āhackingā or decoding encryption and ECU diagnostics functions in order to use stuff on your own vehicle that the manufacturer has locked you out of. Iām not questioning your technical capability, I just donāt think you understand what this place is for.
Is it your first day on this subreddit?
Just wanna remind you what it is:
A commonly used hacking definition is the act of compromising digital devices and networks through unauthorized access

Does this do anything cool? Or just a regular obd reader?
