[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On nextdoor I'm seeing people claiming that these burglars are using some kind of amplifiers that boost the signal of your car key (presumably inside your house while you're sleeping) to open locked doors without the use of force. I don't know the veracity of these claims, but a lot of people say they're buying faraday boxes in which to store their car keys at night. [/quote] This is happening. Several times in the last 12 months in the middle of the night I am woken up to my television suddenly being on and the volume super loud. When I trouble shot with customer service/feel squad over something being wrong with my tv, I was told the more likely cause was someone trying a signal booster to unlock the cars in my driveway, as the tv is in the family room right by the wall, next to our driveway. I never occurred to me that a signal booster could also turn on my tv, but apparently they can. [/quote]
