Soon this all will be much easier. From 12 of September we’re going into a new world of EU Data Act that forces all companies to allow third parties to communicate with iot devices. Which a car is.
So soon Mazda will need to provide those APIs in an official way.
You jailbreak your 2032 Mazda CCX-900 (the smallest car they offer, a limousine) to use the EU firmware so you can utilize an open source app, suddenly the display changes to KM/H and the car demands you sing the French national anthem before it will start and all so your car doesn’t dial into to Mazda corporate to let them know you’re currently going to the store for beans and rice.
Thing is there’s somehow not much coverage on this topic in the media. I only got our internal corporate documents because at our place we’re preparing for it for months already. Its not that easy to invite third parties to a big piece of your cloud iot setup.
EDIT: here is longer but good source. The law came into power somewhere last year but companies had some extra time to prepare their shit which times out September 12

Based on its name, I have to assume the EU Data Act only applies in the EU. So this will still be an issue for anyone who doesn’t live in the EU.

That sounds fantastic! Mind sharing any articles on it, please?
