I’d say they are meant for dumb dishonest people (and most dishonest people happen to be dumb luckily). Honest people don’t need a lock to keep them out of property that isn’t theirs.
Nah most locks do their job at keeping the average car thief or other assholes out, the locksmiths have lost of experience and special tools that aforementioned people don’t have.
Hi Amazon! It’s us, the feds! We were wondering if you know of anyone near a specific area buying certain tools that we’ve seen be used to break into cars?
The locksmith used exactly the bag you’re talking about. He knew just where to place it so the door was minimally torqued. No risk of damage to the vehicle that I could see. He then used a long stick through the small opening to unlock the door.
They also serve as a social signal. If you unlock something with a key, you are assumed to be the owner of it by bystanders. If you bust out a lock picking-kit and start going to town, you are assumed to be committing a crime by bystanders.
Locks are there to keep honest people out. Any lock can be opened given time

Granted
So what about if we stop time? That’ll keep everyone out of my car.
Probability.

It’s not that hard and the tools can be bought at any auto store. It’s the factory alarm that is supposed to be the deterrent
Shure but it keeps the bad guys out in most cases.
You mean the special tools you can buy on scamazon for 12.99 plus shipping?
Or directly from LPL now…heck I even stumbled across the inflatable bags that you use to pry open doors for like 3.99 at crappy tire.
I didn’t say it was super hard, i said its enough to keep the bad people away.
The best way to stop a bad guy with a lockpick is a good guy with a lockpick.
