That’s not something they can go after

Better anti-thief is what you are looking for; like removing the computer from cars

Ah yes, you can see how well having less computers works by how hard Kia and Hyundai’s are to steal in the US.

Our most common technique is to remove the headlight and connect to the computer through that because people stopped keeping their Bluetooth fobs at the door and people have doorbell cameras

Cheap cars aren’t really worth sending over to Africa

The head light thing is because manufactures use the same CAN bus (network) to control security features and lighting. So by saving 50 feet of wire they expose unprotected access to the car’s computers.

Kia removed the chip-in-key feature to save money, they essentially had no anti-theft measures at all.

Car theft is not something that police can go after? If it is up to me to just make my property less steal-able then why the fuck do we have police at all?

Having them check every shipping container leaving our country would destroy the economy and smugglers would just go cross border

Containers from not-janky, high volume, shippers gets them sealed with a tag before they go on the truck. Check the ones without tags.

They can re-register cars and you think they can’t get around tags?

You’ve never seen one of these tags.

Re-read what I said and try to explain how these tags are harder than that

Remembering that you are claiming that infiltrating Service Ontario is easier than infiltrating these companies

You claimed that cars are being re-registered. They are being packed up and shipped over seas where their Canadian registration doesn’t matter.

Regardless, my original point is that cops in Canada do nothing to prevent crime against people, they only protect the rich from the poor.

Defund the police and put the money into healthcare and education.

It’s so when they are found here, they don’t look stolen
