Of course, those of us with older vehicles would have a big advantage. 
No "tattletale" ECM to snitch on us, and the cops would probablly have a
lot less radar and photo equipment as the newer "snitch" ECMs come on
line.  Just think... we can drive past all of the sheep in their new
"snitch" cars, knowing that the cops can't read our ECM, and that they
probablly don't have too many radar guns left.

Well... I'm trying to see the bright side.  The down side is that they
might mandate "retrofit" ECMs, or even ban older cars.
