Internet connected. Sirius may be a vector in. Wary of Android Play since that OS is designed for free access and zero security while logging user information for advertisement sales.

Hack made with Sprint Network Android Phone.

This link is supposed to tell you if your effected by this hack update.
I'm unsure how well I believe it... 2013 JKUR.. Has uconnect, no touchscreen or nav though.
Does the hack not effect Jeeps without touchscreen setups? Or, does anyone know of a way to disable all uconnect(I don't use it anyways)?
