    First blame the thief. But then in the same breath blame the manufacturers that refuse to sell cars with meaningfully working locks. If you understand the tech many car companies keep selling cars that have locks that are about as secure as a zip tie.

      I mean, in the overwhelming number of cases car theft systems work perfectly. There is no single lock or barrier you can ever put up that will stop a determined thief to get in. They robbed the literal pyramids of Giza with bronze tools not long after they were built. There’s only so much you can do.

      The companies will just go around blaming some random engineer for it and then go on throwing money for PR stuff.
