It's reasonable to assume an open door will prevent movement... ...being plugged in to a charger (that doesn't have some sort of automated disconnect) would also be disable. The question is valid though after you've put the k

> While I’m not saying summon is a great feature, it would not have hit the things you’re mentioning. ...and auto pilot won't drive into giant barriers in the middle of well-marked, and mapped, highway divide either, right?

Something you know. Something you have. The typical two factor is a password (know) and SMS to a cellphone or code to an email (have). ...though that creates a vulnerability when the cell number can be ported, or the same password is used t
