Canada declares Flipper Zero public enemy No. 1 in car-theft crackdown

They can only steal rich people’s cars (keyless entry) with this, I’m for it. Those are the same people voting down public transit.

Notably even an economy compact car like the Corolla can have keyless entry, I think it was an option for the Corolla starting in ~2007 unless I’m mixing up models. So it was not just mid-tier cars back then, but also the smaller & more affordable ones.

I had a 2008 Prius with this, yes. I turned it off and used a physical key because I didn’t like the attack surface.

Isn’t the Corolla the luxury line vs the camry though? And having an early prius definitely a rich person thing.

Til driving a 14 year old Hyundai makes me rich.

I think I’ll have caviar for lunch today
