But at least they can persecute tinkerers and cyber security professionals while the criminals continue to steal cars.
It's win-win for the POS in law enforcement. They create more crime stats for themselves to ensure their increased funding, and the criminals continue stealing cars.
Even better, tinkerers and cyber security professionals are easy to find and there's a much lower chance of them fighting back compared to actual car thieves so it's very low risk for the police. They get to be lazy and safe while padding their numbers, all their favorite things at once.
