Isn't using J1939 just an example of them embracing an industry standard? That stuff is everywhere now, right?

It is how you embrace J1939 that makes the difference. In a J1939 dataframe two data words are defined: one open, the other proprietary. The proprietary word can be, and is with JD's implementation, encrypted. Therefore, anything actuated by the proprietary word is operable iff you have the key.
Thanks!
