UGeorge Hotz, owaziwa ngokuba nguGeoHot ngumphakathi we-hacker, wayengomnye wabokuqala kwi-jailbreak ye-iPhone, kunye nokwenza okufanayo kunye ne-PlayStation 3. Nangona kunjalo, akazange afune ukuhlala ebambelele kwiimveliso ze-elektroniki zabathengi, ngoko Kubonakala ngathi. ukuba uye wadlulela kwizithuthi ezizimeleyo, apho naye wayefuna ukuba ngomnye wabokuqala ukuphuhlisa. I-GeoHot ikwazile ukuguqula i-Acura ILX yayo ibe yimoto ezimele ngokupheleleyo Ngombulelo kumgangatho wakhe ongaguqukiyo kuphuhliso lwesoftware kunye nethiyori, uGeorge ngokungathandabuzekiyo ungumntu okrelekrele ongayeki ukusimangalisa.
Kwiminyaka yakutshanje uye wazinikela ekutshintsheni iinkampani ezifana nezikhafu, ekubeni imicimbi yakhe e-Apple kunye ne-Sony, usebenze kwiqela lophuhliso kwi-Facebook nakwi-Google. Nangona kunjalo, kubonakala ngathi akukho nanye kuloo misebenzi eye yamzalisekisa ngendlela athanda ngayo, enyanisweni asothuki kwaphela ukuba ezi ntlobo zemisebenzi zisilela okanye zibonakala zikruqula kule ngcali yekhompyutha. Ngapha koko, ezi mpawu zakhe zophuhliso ziye zabamba ingqalelo yabafana abakhulu kwishishini leemoto, beqala ngomnini weTesla Motors, uElon Musk.
I-GeoHot ikwazile ukuguqula i-Acura ILX yayo ibe yimoto ezimeleyo ngokupheleleyo ukusuka kwigaraji yayo ngokusebenzisa isikrini se-21,5-intshi ebonisa iinkcukacha zenkqubo, esekelwe kwi-Ubuntu Linux.Izalise umphandle wemoto ngeekhamera kunye ne-laser radars ulwazi malunga nokusingqongileyo ukuze ungalahleki iinkcukacha kwaye wenze izigqibo ezifanelekileyo. Konke oku kubulela kwikhompyuter encinci efakwe ngendlela yayo kwisithuthi. Injongo kukuba isithuthi sizenzele izigqibo ngokwaso ngokuchanekileyo kangangoko kunokwenzeka.
Konke oku kuye kwathetha ukuba u-Elon Musk akazange anqikaze ukubonisana nomdwelisi omncinci, nangona kubonakala ngathi isithembiso esilingayo asizange sanele ukumbamba iGeoHot.
