Joshua Orta was planning on cooperating with investigators hired by the family of his friend, Ruben Ray Martinez, who was fatally shot by an ICE agent last year, according to a report
I think you’re trying to defend if this was him being killed by ICE - while I personally doubt it was (why would ICE care enough to do this elaborate conspiracy BS that almost failed when they could just, you know, shoot him) - that’s not really needed here, I’m not trying to make a case either way. I’m just pointing out that “hacking a car” can’t, outside of a handful of models, be used by a hacker as an automatic crash button. Even that example you linked to at worst just disabled the engine, which wouldn’t inherently cause someone to lose control of a car (idk if you’ve ever had an engine die while you’re driving, but it really isnt a big deal to manage).
