Maybe you're right, but I think Apple will consider that a distinction without a difference. A thief who breaks into a car using one of those hook things for the window still needs to know what (s)he's doing. That doesn't mean you don't get a lot of police attention if you're wandering around a car-park with one of them... The eye of Sauron will blink, swivel, and focus hard towards these guys, IMHO. Hope they have good^better lawyers.

And yet it’s still not (in the U.S., AFAIK) illegal to sell, buy, or posses one of those tools to enter the car. Not even intrinsically illegal to use it—breaking and entering the car is what is illegal, regardless of the tool used. Of course, a lawsuit may always be filed even if they have no belief they will win.

  And yet it is illegal to own lock picks in some jurisdictions. Admittedly, not as bad as it was a decade ago in the US, but still several states outlaw them unless you are a certified locksmith.
