I've got an anti-hijack system in my car.
It won't let me start the engine w/o a wireless key.

If I absolutely want it there's a 10 minute emergency procedure.
A complicated sequence of actions - press hidden button, accelerator, break, 
etc.

P.S. The talk is about *safe defaults* actually.
If I want the emergency button cut off I can do it.
But that's an option not the default.
