Your car is 'Stoned:' Autos join the hacking era
 

Automakers are entering the Stoned era of connected cars.

Back in 1987, the Stoned virus was one of the most destructive and widespread computer viruses yet witnessed. It was spread through floppy discs (remember them?) and announced on screen, “Your computer is now stoned.”
