A key unlocks the car.

It is an implicit assumption, when buying a car, that it is not trivial to start the car without said key.

If you paid $2000 for a security door, just for the door to be opened by anyone with a credit card, would you not feel defrauded?

Or would you make a sorry jab at the culture of the people doing the harm, to play pretend devil's advocate in bad faith, just to stroke your petty ego, trying to induce a culture war?

Tell me why I'm wrong. [I totally deserve everyone's attention by the way! Look at me!!!11!]

Have lock smiths and people in prisons demonstrate how good/bad locks are.

Set up a rating system from say 0 to 100 where 0 is unlocked and anything that opens instantly using small hand tools is considered unlocked.

All locks get a rating of 5 until an official time is set. The videos are not shared but the current best time is published along with a statement from the manufacturer if they desire it.

A special tax for everyone to drive a vehicle that is considered unlocked as a permanent reminder and to pay for all of the above. While low at first, if there are few unlocked cars driving around the tax is higher.

It's a probability distribution. I can get most residentials' + deadlock in 30 seconds total 25% of the time, just by raking (brute forcing) pin key combinations, 80% of most in under 3 minutes; switching to rake with a different wavelength shortens that, especially when a familiarity is developed, let alone picking.

But that's not even the issue -- especially moot since porcelain exists.

Similar to the (overly strong-handed) back-up camera mandate regulations, auto manufactures should be held to a higher standard for the most critical aspect of the vehicle: the authorization and authentication of its user is the intended operator.
