all because people don’t to burn a calorie twisting a metal key.
It’s not like keys were some kind of unbreakable security, either. In fact, I think their shitty electronic security is actually an improvement.
I’ma be honest, a wedge, a puffy bag, and a fancy stick is like $20 at every auto store and works just as well on those fancy doors as it does on keyed ones. If someone wants in they’ll get in.
At least the electronic ones ostensibly can’t be hotwired though, supposedly. Not sure how much I believe that though.
Jimmying a lock is a lot more skill and effort than vaguely waving a device in the general vicinity of a car.
Not really. A lot of those locks were breakable by jamming a screw driver in.
Edit: this thing works on replay attacks. At a minimum, you have to catch the signal while the owner presses the button.
