That has nothing to do with free software. If you have the ability to flash software then the current software on the system does not matter. Ford could make their software open source, free and anyone could download it, but it would be useless unless Ford provided a way to flash that software. The freeness of the software literally has nothing to do with this post at all.
Uh it does solve this 😂
As I posted elsewhere.
Okay Mr. Pedantic, this is a lack of free software AND free hardware problem.
Lmao exactly that
