# Proprietary Comma AI
|
||
|
The Comma AI appears at first to be quite "open", but it is built upon
|
||
|
a lot of proprietary infrastruction. For example, in the docs on using
|
||
|
`ssh` to access the device, step one:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
1. You need a GitHub account. Make one if you don't already have one.
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
From: https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/wiki/SSH
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
So despite being "open", work will need to be done to use this device
|
||
|
without proprietary tools. I'm guessing this issue will be found throughout
|
||
|
the toolchain as I dig deeper. It already needs a libre fork.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Perhaps a list starting here of proprietary parts:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* OpenSSH access to the device "needs" a Github account.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Development on Github.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Discord for chat.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* SSH on the device uses Microsoft proxy.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Also has GSM device, doing who-knows-what.
