Smart locks are way more convenient and the ability to grant timed access and unique access controls probably makes them more secure. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] AngryAnusHornets@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) If you’re caught with a lock pick, or sledge hammer or saw all, that establishes intent.

Of course that’s a huge “if” permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] stigmata@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) If they thought that far ahead they wouldn't be running around breaking into homes and cars. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Followupquestion@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago Have you seen the scrap prices for catalytic converters? Also, the best thieves of all time were the ones that stole the catalytic converters from the police vehicles in a certain major city. Other than taxes paying for their replacements, I’m not even mad, I’m impressed with their hubris. permalink fedilink source parent
