Let's play jeopardy
Besides if their going to be turning off the legacy vpn connection soon it's a moot point.
What does this mean? What’s the legacy vpn vs the non-legacy vpn?

Question to those who got the update forced upon them:
Was the update already downloaded to the car (yellow clock icon) and ready for installation?
Or was the update downloaded (notification on APP) and then installed right away (meaning you had no yellow clock icon when you left the car and when you returned the new version was already installed)?
Do you have your cars connected to WiFi? What modem is installed in your MCU (3G or LTE)?
I'm not sure about the yellow clock icon just before the assault. I was not taking any special precautions to prevent it. I'm glad it's over with, even though they broke my browser and split screen UI. There was some small gain that came with the substantial loss. I can now lock it down in Chill mode when my 16 year old asks to borrow it. I now get the latest safety improvements and AP2 improvements. The new AP graphics are really cool. Being able to satisfy the nag with a scroll wheel or turn signal is nice. Spotify(maybe). PIN to drive (will probably use for certain occasions). Being able to send destinations to the nav. The video games might be useful, but you a can't use a controller with our classic Tesla's, so pretty much useless. That's all I can think of for now.Question to those who got the update forced upon them:

You can. It's another case of Tesla being lazy or maybe using faked limitations to push new car sales, but we had USB mouse support until a few years ago when they took it away so we already know that input devices are supported by the hardware.The video games might be useful, but you a can't use a controller with our classic Tesla's, so pretty much useless.
I had the same thought. I plugged a mouse in to try it out a couple of years ago. It worked, but ultimately was easier to control the touchscreen by touching it. I bought a game controller thinking it would work for the video games, because the mouse worked. Can't believe they took input device functionality away from us. Those bastards. I'm starting to think Elon deserved all those noogies he got growing up.You can.

@swegman: Does your MCU have a 3G or 4G (LTE) modem installed?
Electroman should have LTE with AP2.

On the same configuration as you (v8.1, 3G, no Wi-Fi), and also received that notification this morning. Obviously, our network status icon isn't labeled "LTE", so it's probably a generic message for all cars that aren't on Wi-Fi. I'd imagine this is the new standard way to notify of software update availability, rather than pushing the whole update down over 3G or LTE first and then telling us it's available. Cellular data is way more expensive than Wi-Fi, so this approach doesn't seem unreasonable.Got an interesting message on my MCU when I was about to leave home today.
I have never seen this before, I guess Tesla really wants me to update. Am still on v8.1 without Wifi connection since July and having “only” a 3G modem.
Tesla's software updates have a well-documented history of breaking functionality and taking away features, while adding dubious distractions like fart apps. Owners who have personally experienced this over the past 5-6 years now tend to be more cautious about updating.*rolls eyes*
buys most technological car on the planet and afraid of software updates.
