Automakers to use DMCA to make working on your own car illegal

[dmcowen674]

That article seems to be about the computer(s) in your car, not the car itself if I read it right.

So while it may end the tuning chips people put in, it would not end the aftermarket intake/exhaust/turbo chargers etc? (unless addition of these requires changing the computer settings)

Yes, putting a K&N filter kit would be "altering" your settings because you are changing the air pressure.
