There is no mode switch for brakes. We’ve had ABS and emergency brake assist features in cars for decades. Having a computer actuate the brakes vs a person requires absolutely nothing to change or ‘switch’. Pressure is applied to the hydraulic system manually through the brake pedal or automatically through an electric pump. Both are always in the system at all times.
Some cars have the ability to pre-charge the brake booster to apply more braking force in the event it determines you’re performing a ‘panic stop’. This feature was developed because most people tend to not apply the brakes hard enough in these situations. That is almost certainly what happened here. Not the switch between driving modes.
Why does this article leave out that this happened March of 2023…more than a year ago. They just got the footage last week. That still seems like an important detail.
Edit: added link to another article.
They posted a link to their blog post down in the comments of the gist…
We also want to address the Bug Bounty program associated with this case. Although the researcher did initially submit the vulnerability through our established process, they violated key ethical principles by directly contacting third parties about their report prior to remediation. This was in violation of bug bounty terms of service, which are industry standard and intended to protect the white hat community while also supporting responsible disclosure. This breach of trust resulted in the forfeiture of their reward, as we maintain strict standards for responsible disclosure.
They failed to mention that the report was closed for being out of scope. Any reasonable person would expect that to mean a remediation was not coming. So really he didn’t give up his bounty because he wasn’t getting one to begin with.
Edit: cause autocorrect is dumb.
Your house doesn’t have radiant heating through the floors by chance does it?
If companies can market things as juice that are 0% juice then I think we should allow this…
People literally just drop usb drives in the parking lot of places they want to compromise hoping some idiot will plug it into a machine inside. So they might want to check their security tapes of the parking lot.
I’ve sent a usb drive through the washing machine a couple times. Still works fine. So can’t imagine rain bothers them too much.
