There are a couple like this and I use them. They work great. The only thing you need to be careful is sometimes they stop sms mfa codes, but it’s gotten so good that doesn’t seem to happen anymore. It’s easy to toggle on and off, and you can whitelist by different criteria if it happens to grab things it shouldn’t. Here is what my block looks like:

You need to use VeroSMS or something to block all the political bs. Best thing I ever did

Sure is. Block the tv from the internet. Get a Chromecast, use that instead

Don’t android phones have 2 esims?

Yes because having a user remember to do something is a great line of defense, better than encrypting it from the get go. It should just be encrypted in the file.

Am I the only one in this thread that took this as it’s asking for a clear text credential which is a terrible idea?

Not really at all. I believe your view is wrong. Just because you believe your high level of intellect makes it impossible for you, you may be forgetting the legion of morons and old people out there driving. Is 100% entirely possible someone could be turning a corner and accidentally does something to cause a distraction and run someone over because they instantly look down away from the road.

Regardless of the persons intelligence, it absolutely can and almost guaranteed has happened numerous times over humans driving careers. The button style just makes these situations easier to take place.

Edit - this isn’t a hit piece on EVs, touch capacitive controls suck in general in cars. Physical buttons are always better, easier to press and locate, and do what you need without drawing your attention from driving.

I mean they literally were talking about multiple ways. Someone could hit a stereo control and spike volume while turning the wheel which causes a huge break in concentration leading to an accident. That is absolutely possible and could be extremely dangerous in the right situation.
