VIDEO: TWO HACKERS CAN REMOTELY HACK INTO AND CONTROL CARS, LIKE THEY DID WITH THIS 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE! EPIC OR EVIL?

The auto industry embraces new technology like no other. Unfortunately with new tech comes new problems. A lot of new cars are connected to the Internet, and just about anything connected to the Internet can be hacked into. This was just proven by hackers Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek. The two managed to hack into a 2014 Jeep Cherokee being driven by Wired writer Andy Greenberg. Once the two were in they started messing with the tech scribe while he drove along a St. Louis freeway.

Check the video out to see Greenberg’s reaction to having his accelerator disabled while driving. Yeah, they can do that and whole lot more!
