It also locks you out after that neighbor you don’t like intentionally types a wrong code five times, because you where playing loud Music yesterday until 21:00

  To be fair, a tube of superglue has a similar effect on a dumb lock.

    Pushing buttons doesn't scream vandalism like inserting glue into a lock does. As a less vandalism like attack, consider when your drunk neighbours attempts to enter your apartment instead of their own. The security "feature" of a lock out is just an easily triggerable denial of service attack.

      I like doing it to corporate security folks after they try to dictate it in authentication systems. They usually seem to understand after it's done to them.

        Oh, I like that approach. I will have to remember this "argument" against lock out.

  So you’re saying to fight back people should just keep hitting random numbers locking everyone out in a building? Not a bad play.
