Let’s ban a product instead of solving the issue at hand… Seriously? I hate my country more and more as each day passes
The device only gives easy access to already extremely weak/non existent security systems. That’s literally it.
It’s just something that’s existed forever, but put into a convenient package and marketed well enough that suddenly normal people are realising how insecure their electronic systems actually are.
Kinda like how they used to make pacemakers hackable because they never thought to add any security at all. I bet many of them still don’t.
Anyway, the issue lies not with this device, which can’t “hack” anything with any actual security, the issue is with manufacturers making devices that literally leave the door wide open to anybody with an extremely basic electronic sniffer/cloner device.
Yep you can do the same operations with a RTLSDR (20-40$) and a signal repeater (20ish) and raspberry pi/netbook. It’s somewhat harder to do if you don’t know the software but it really just exposes very insecure hardware. Companies should put a semblance of security and it would take care of things. These kind of devices are everywhere not just the flipper. Flipper just made it a tiny bit more friendly.
Maybe cars should not be so easy to steal… I thought we came to an agreement on this.
If the flipper can help you stealing a car, the flipper is not the problem, but the neglect and incompetence of the car company is.
