It has nothing to do with flashing images, which I do not tolerate in my car either. It has to do with ads themselves, which have always walked the line between interactivity and malware. I don't want someone to be able to run arbitrary code on my car for $0.0004. No way.

Could you imagine ransomware on your CAR? While you are driving in it?? No thank you.

Cars should not be connected to internet, period. If you want some component to be able to be part of the car and connected, it should be hardware that is physically not linked to the car system itself in any way.

And you should not be able to issue OTA without some manual hardware operation, like turning a key somewhere that is far from the wheel.
