I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car

In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

These features require the cloud

No they don't. You can use WiFi. Or Bluetooth. Or 433Mhz radio.

If you're in range for these to work, the fob will also turn the car on. These features are useful if you park at a public place or on a large campus.

What if you don't have a fob?

Then the car needs to do a handshake to a cloud service as I described above.
