    That’s not something they can go after

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

      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?

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

        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.
