Hackers have begun remotely blocking Chinese-made cars owned by Russian drivers on a large scale, according to a report shared widely online. The claim, circulated by the opposition outlet Charter97 amid Russia's war in Ukraine, suggests connected vehicles imported from China can be disabled remotely.
