    Or just not storing your key where it can be repeated 🤪 this attack is 100% mitigated by some distance or just fuckin’ aluminum foil.

      You would need to put your keys in a faraday cage.

      Distance doesn’t matter, as they can just use a bigger antenna or better amplifier. You find footage of people using large loops of wire to capture the signal from the keys

        Can’t wrapping a key in aluminum foil act as a faraday cage?

      Sure, you could and probably should do that. But is that something the consumer should have to do?

      At what point is a design flaw/defect the consumer’s responsibility?
