It describes a new CAN-bus module for reading, replaying, injecting, and fuzzing frames, parsing frames with DBC files, and detecting ECUs, alongside other new features and fixes. ### Source excerpt I'm happy to announce, after quite some time, the new bettercap 2.4.0 major release. Other than including a plethora of long due fixes (additionally to what the recent 2.33.0 already fixed), it also packs a few new functionalities that extend its reach to car and industrial control system hacking. It'll possibly take me some time to update the documentation on the official website so I'm here today to write a bit about the new features. Also remember that you can use the help, help ui, help can and help wifi commands to check all the new options and added functionalities. ## Analyzing Swiss Car Accident Data to Inform Commute Timing with a Power BI Dashboard DevFeed: [Analyzing Swiss Car Accident Data to Inform Commute Timing with a Power BI Dashboard]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2023-10-20T00:00:00Z Content type: tutorial Language: en Sources: [Mutt0-ds Notes]() Topics: [data](), [dashboards](), [Google Maps]() Tags: [car](), [dashboard](), [data](), [google-maps]() ### AI overview This article analyzes a decade of Swiss car accident data to understand when accidents are more likely and how that information may inform commute planning. It describes obtaining the data from a Swiss government dashboard, preparing multilingual fields, and working with Swiss coordinate data. The author emphasizes that the analysis is a general framework and cannot predict or prevent accidents or account for everyday disruptions. ### Source excerpt I want to express my gratitude for the positive feedbacks I received a few months ago when I used Google Maps data to determine the best... ## Behind the Screen: How People Use Android Across Devices DevFeed: [Behind the Screen: How People Use Android Across Devices]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Matt McKenna Published: 2022-11-15T05:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Matt McKenna]() Topics: [Android](), [Operating system]() Tags: [android](), [car](), [compose](), [conference-sessions](), [devices](), [droidcon](), [fitness](), [kotlin]() ### AI overview The article discusses Android's widespread use across user-facing devices, including car displays, airplane entertainment systems, fitness gear, and point-of-sale systems. ### Source excerpt Android has been around for over 10 years, and has now become the most used operating system in the entire world.

It compares the documented use of MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_FOCUS with observed behavior, reporting that Assistant currently returns a focus value that is not defined as an SDK constant. ### Source excerpt When working on the Android Auto integration for SoundCloud, I stumbled upon an interesting issue. When it comes to implementing voice actions, things you read in the documentation might differ a bit from reality. Voice commands are very critical while driving a car. You want the driver to keep looking at the street, keep his hands on the steering wheel, instead of interacting with any screen. This is why when building for Android Auto, Automotive OS, and Assistant Driving Mode you have to support basic voice searches. For a music app like ours, the idea is simple. A user can say something like: "Play Moderat on SoundCloud" Under the hood The Assistant will break down our sentence for interpretation: " " The verb (Play) and the app (SoundCloud) in the above command were meant for the system. It will then wake up the app mentioned (if it declared auto support via manifest) and, as we asked for verb "Play", the method MediaSessionCompat.Callback.onPlayFromSearch() will be called with the remaining query ("Moderat") as the argument. This query of "what to play" can still mean different things though. How do you know if Moderat is a band or a song? Don't worry, the Assistant will help us also here. It already got some idea what our query could mean, if we asked for an artist, an album, or a specific track. But be aware, it behaves slightly differently than officially documented. According to documentation we are supposed to write code like this: val mediaFocus = extras?.getString(MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_FOCUS) if (mediaFocus == MediaStore.Audio.Artists.ENTRY_CONTENT_TYPE) { isArtistFocus = true artist = extras.getString(MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_ARTIST) We are suppose to check for a bundle entry with the key MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_FOCUS . This will give us a hint on how best to interpret the query. The value of the constant MediaStore.EXTRA_MEDIA_ARTIST checked above is vnd.android.cursor.item/artist and there are similar constants related to ## Automotive Privacy DevFeed: [Automotive Privacy]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Adam Published: 2018-07-09T00:00:00Z Content type: opinion Language: en Sources: [Shostack & Friends Blog]() Topics: [data](), [App]() Tags: [car](), [data](), [lyft](), [privacy](), [tracking]() ### AI overview This commentary examines automotive privacy concerns, including vehicle data collection and the difficulty of declining it.

It suggests that social platforms can create value through targeted, embedded branding based on user interests, including advertising within games, while avoiding disruption. ### Source excerpt Social advertising is a very different than traditional web advertising. The thing about social media advertisers, is users aren't looking for a product. They're already engaged in some activity, and don't necessarily want to be drawn away from that. But that does not mean there isn't value in it, it's just a different form of value than search advertising. When a user is searching from google, they are actually looking for something. They're often looking for products, which is why advertising in its current form works great on search. It's logical if a user is searching for shampoo, that proctor and gamble would want to pay to have their products show up on the right. This is vastly different from when I'm playing a racing game on facebook, and Ford shows me a commercial for their product, they're not the same thing. However there is still HUGE value in social advertising. Since you know so much more about a user you can target them even better, I can know, age, gender, music/movie preferenes, interests, hobbies, among many other things. Where this can help is branding, if there is a car game, and you can present a solid brand in places throughout that game I become brand loyal without realizing it. I don't become disengaged, but I do take notice of it. It's much like the branding that takes place in movies, or console games, with large negotiated contracts, however it needs to occur on a micro-level.
