It's always peak comedy when a company goes out of its way to shut down someone laboring to improve their products for free, in the process making their customer's experience worse and likely angering those customers.

Stabbing yourself with a flourish and a bow.

What sort of attitudes are off the leash, causing this, is never hard to imagine.

User arathol on mazda3revolution.com has some interesting tidbits:

> Mazda has been doing this for some time now with all their software, at least since 2017 when they issued new infotainment software to block the AIO tweaks and warnings about modifying their software. I don't think this is entirely from Mazda though. The .502 software was more about Johnson Controls, the developers of the software, having fits about people monkeying around with something that they considered proprietary.

I wonder who the developers of this particular software are.
