Yes, and apparently the various locals are hiding the fact that they
have them though the info is subject to FOIA, they ignore any requests
on details.

Once done, some Chinese outfit will be selling the equipment for cheepcheep,

cloners, and whatever else to circumvent or get into various systems -- the
electronic keys are big now, garage door openers, whatever.
I recall some years ago getting a cell phone bill (my work phone) for nearly
$2k, calls all over the world, most to Mexico, from all over the US. I call
the cell phone co, whoever it was, and ask WTF. They look into it, determine
my (analog at the time) phone had been cloned and someone made clones and were
probably selling time to make calls. Found out a few others at the company had
the same thing done, turns out someone was probably sitting at a traffic light
not far from the office, sniffing phones while people sat in the traffic making
calls or pinging the towers or whatever. Equipment was fairly cheap even then
(though probably not from China at that time). Now the cops have these devices
that can spoof phones, acting like a cell node, and collect all kinds of stuff
from them. I guess if you have a coupla $k you could buy one too.

I still don't see how car hacking can make money on any kind of
scale,
but if it's easy then people will just do it for fun. :(
It could be used by Mafia hit men ...
