Original: LOL, ๐ ๐ ๐ โ Hackers Have Begun Blocking Chinese-made Cars Owned By Russians On A Massive Scale https:// charter97.org/e
Reports circulating say hackers have begun blocking Chinese-made cars owned by Russians on a massive scale. The claim comes via the Belarusian opposition outlet Charter97, which ties the story to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. Many Chinese vehicles sold in Russia depend on connected apps and remote services, so any disruption could leave owners unable to use their cars normally.
Why now: The claim suggests cyberattacks tied to the Russia-Ukraine war are now affecting Russian consumers through their Chinese-made connected vehicles.
