Nebraska, USA: Within minutes, a single hailstorm reduced 14,000 solar panels, worth millions of dollars, into a pile
of toxic debris-leaching materials like cadmium and lead into the soil.

A hailstorm disaster in Nebraska USA reacted immediately and turned a multi million dollar investment... a solar park
into a pile of toxic debris within minutes. Hale destroyed 14,000 solar panels with a total capacity of 5.2 megawatts.
The complex was planned by the investors to produce green energy for 25 years, but in reality, it only made it to four
years.

Uhhh... I don't know why... you're both Cuntnadian.

Alan knows his shit when it comes to cars and he's exactly right about the On-board Diagnostics.

I spent years in QA/QC at Nissan and we all walked around with an OBD-II device, that told us exactly what was wrong.

If you can't fix your own car, even after knowing what's wrong with it... buy a '63 VW Bug.

Things are not usually as simple as you might hope. :)
Modern cars have a network. The batteries, the fuel system, the
ignition, the dashboard, the lights, are all on a mini internet.
You think this is not encrypted? What if a thief got in there
and convinced the central locking system it has received a pass key
from a key or fob?

And the more compliacted things get the more complex they HAVE to
get just to catch up to the first part of the complications.
And the best part about this from the biz angle -- it makes it easier
to fence off access to something and charge anyone that wants access rent.
So obviously we're on a path where everything will become increasingly
more complex and costly.

I have no doubt that there can be edge cases where the OBD system of the
car doesn't display the necessary information for a problem.

But the vast majority of cases let the owner purchase a (relatively)
inexpensive tool that allows that to learn things that would have cost
that hundreds if not thousands of dollars at an auto shop.

Oh, I did check.

(And isn't it interesting that you snipped so much of what I wrote?)

Here is the complete sentence from your source:

'In view of the multi-functional mixed criticality characteristics of
automotive electronic system, a security protocol for vehicle CAN
network based on dynamic encryption is proposed to save system computing
resources and reduce the impact on real-time performance.'

<https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9532013>

Do you see that text you chose to leave out:

"proposed"?

That implies that there is no encryption being used currently, correct?

Again, you are making a claim that something is not possile.
Such claims are bound to be wrong.

On the climate change side of things you seem to be on the white hat
side. It's the nay-sayers that are claiming some part of
climate science is "impossible". And almost always they are wrong.

In this case you may be getting confused between what the CAN protocol
defines and what it can be used for. Perhaps aided by an old textbook
or two. :)

The Ethernet protocol does not definie an encryptin standard.
Old textbooks dont even mention ecryption. E.g. telnet and ftp
were old utilities that sent everything "clear".

But that doesn't mean encrypted packets are not sent over the Internet
and that is standard now.

You need to google something like "is there some vehcile manufacturer that
uses encrypted CAN as a standard feature". You will find they exist
and one of them was mentioned in the footnote at the bottom of the OP.

Automotive CAN Bus: Exploring CAN Vehicle Communication
The CAN protocol does not include encryption or authentication mechanisms,
making it susceptible to unauthorized access and potential security breaches.
However, various solutions and best practices have been developed to
address these security concerns, #

There are currently no cars that use an encrypted CANbus.

Utterly irrelevant.

In this case you may be getting confused between what the CAN protocol
defines and what it can be used for. Perhaps aided by an old textbook
or two. :)
The Ethernet protocol does not definie an encryptin standard.
Old textbooks dont even mention ecryption. E.g. telnet and ftp
were old utilities that sent everything "clear".
Utterly irrelevant.
Post by R Kym Horsell
But that doesn't mean encrypted packets are not sent over the Internet
and that is standard now.
You need to google something like "is there some vehcile manufacturer that
uses encrypted CAN as a standard feature". You will find they exist
and one of them was mentioned in the footnote at the bottom of the OP.
Even after fixing your typos:

'No results found for "is there some vehicle manufacturer that uses
encrypted CAN as a standard feature".'

Taking away the quotes, and you get one article about Hyundai using
encryption...

...for its INFOTAINMENT system.

Not the entire care.

Long gone are the days of servicing your own vehicle.
Apart from oiling some bearings you can't and sometimes are
prohibited by law from fixing your own car.
I was helping a neighbor recently and it turned out you
needed to break an old mil grade encryption to even ask it here it hurt.
What kind of car was that?

There's a theorem of computer science that roughly says
every program can't handle some conditions. In this case the
car's main central processor(s) said there was no fault but the car
would not start. After the maker offered to investigate for a 4-figure
sum plus expenses the owner decided to break into the car's electronics
and fix it themselves. Turned out another compter on that car's local
network did know what was wrong and we tinkerer around until we found
the problem. A shorted switch in the centre console.

Actually it was "old mil grade encryption". Anything with less than a 512bit
key these days is "old". Again, the footnote in the original post
gives a hint of the details.
We looked around and found a list of relevant keys on the web and one
of them worked for that maker in the relevant subsystem.
It took a couple days in all but saved a few thousand. The bad switch
was a $1 item.
It took another day to replace. Has anyone tried to remove a centre
console lately? Apparently you need a phd in engineering to do it.
Or you must be willing to live with the axe marks.

There's a theorem of computer science that roughly says
That's a "side effect" of completeness vs. consistency.

IF you make a system "complete", that is covering all possible
exigencies, you cannot *prove* (or guaranty) it to be internally
consistent. So we have to live with systems that don't do everything
but what they do they do "correctly". More that one "System" is
required and even then there's no guarantees of covering off all cases.

Interestingly, a "minimalist" corollary of this is that Man does not
live by bread alone, but by Every Word of G*s ;-)

For more on this, read up about B. Russel and George Cantor.

...

You're talking to someone that has been doing that stuff for 1/2 a lifetime. :)
I like to think of it in terms of self-reference.
Any system that has to look at itself will strike problems.
Can you make a machine that can diagnose its own faults?
What happens when the diagnostic part has a fault?

NASA always had an engineering policy that every mission-critical system
had to have triple redundancy. If not 3 identical systems then
at least 3 different subsystems had to be able to do the same job.
But the point of failure generally was the part of the system that
took the vote of the 3 identical systems to find out the majority-decision
and switch out the subsystem that was wrong.

In MV you often see the central computer start up and ask various sub-systems
to run diagnostics. The sub-systems poke some circuits and see if the
results are what they expect. If so, they send an OK back to the start-up
request from the central processor.

But the checking runs into a problem. If you have to check say 1 million
bits to decide if your sub-system is working then how do you check
they are all correct? A typical method is to use a hash. Boil the
sequence of 1 million correct bits down into a 16 bit number.
Take the hash of the million and check it against the 16 bits in PROM.
But there is a logical problem. A million bits can have "many" more
possible combinations of values than 16 bits. So it means there can
be many problems that hash to exactly the "everything is OK" code.

But the hashing idea is cheap and everyone uses it "all the time".

So it's a minor miracle these days when you put your bread in a toaster
that it cooks it for a couple mins, the toast pops up, and it's edible.

Uhhh... I don't know why... you're both Cuntnadian.

Alan knows his shit when it comes to cars and he's exactly right about the On-board Diagnostics.

I spent years in QA/QC at Nissan and we all walked around with an OBD-II device, that told us exactly what was wrong.

If you can't fix your own car, even after knowing what's wrong with it... buy a '63 VW Bug.

I was helping a neighbor recently and it turned out you
needed to break an old mil grade encryption to even ask it here it hurt.
What kind of car was that?
All cars built for sale in North America have had a standard OBD-II port
that can be read by various scanners costing anywhere from $20...
...to a lot more depending on complexity.
So what was that "mil grade encryption", hmmm?
You've not looked at automobile firmware, EVER, have you?
You think you need to break the encryption on the firmware to get
diagnostic information?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Yer wasting your time commenting on what I say.

Nebraska, USA: Within minutes, a single hailstorm reduced 14,000 solar
panels, worth millions of dollars, into a pile of toxic debris-leaching
materials like cadmium and lead into the soil.
Lotta folks don't get how fragile hi-tech shit is.

Uhhh... I don't know why... you're both Cuntnadian.

Alan knows his shit when it comes to cars and he's exactly right about the On-board Diagnostics.

I spent years in QA/QC at Nissan and we all walked around with an OBD-II device, that told us exactly what was wrong.

If you can't fix your own car, even after knowing what's wrong with it... buy a '63 VW Bug.

Nebraska, USA: Within minutes, a single hailstorm reduced 14,000 solar panels, worth millions of dollars, into a pile
of toxic debris-leaching materials like cadmium and lead into the soil.
A hailstorm disaster in Nebraska USA reacted immediately and turned a multi million dollar investment... a solar park
into a pile of toxic debris within minutes. Hale destroyed 14,000 solar panels with a total capacity of 5.2 megawatts.
The complex was planned by the investors to produce green energy for 25 years, but in reality, it only made it to four
years.
https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1840391300463333376/pu/vid/avc1/482x720/EoHKIeDgaDmZM3-S.mp4?tag=12
'The company said the damaged panels “contain no cadmium telluride and
we have identified no risk to the local community or the environment.” A
spokesperson said this week that he had no update from that statement.

The mention of cadmium telluride is a nod to the ludicrous coverage of
this incident by outlets such as Fox News. As I’ve written before,
opponents of solar power like to raise red flags about the alleged
danger to human and animal health from solar panels that contain
cadmium. But cadmium is only in a tiny share of panels on the market,
and the solar industry uses a form of cadmium that is safer than the
form that fuels the scare stories.'

'‍Myth #1: When solar panels break, they become hazardous to human and
environmental health.

Reality: The International Energy Administration (IEA) studied whether
solar panels posed a significant threat to human and environmental
health, and if broken panels would impact local groundwater. They
conclusively found that even if the panels were smashed and processed in
a basic landfill, there would be no significant hazard to local
communities.

...

‍Myth 3: Solar panels cannot be recycled and end up in local landfills.

Reality: Companies like SOLARCYCLE are recycling panels today and
returning those valuable materials right back to the domestic supply
chain for clean energy. '

Well... no fucking shit. Landfills have liners and layers of clay, etc., to protect the groundwater.
Are there liners or multiple-feet thick layers of clay under the solar farm?
Yeah... didn't think so.
And do you think they're just going to LEAVE the broken panels there,

Do you even know if those panels have ANY cadmium in them?

Do you examine the risks of other power generation methods?

No, huh?

Are you sure all of them are not toxic?

Another problem is the quality of the install and support of the system after
the sale.
If the install is not done correctly, and many are not, you just destroyed your
roof causing water to leak into your home.

Additionally these companies come and go. They pop up under one business name,
botch installs, go out of business and then reappear under a different company
name so the after sale support can be sketchy.
