People don't steal cars to keep cars. They steal them to use them in commission of other crimes and then ditched, for joy riding, or for breaking down into parts to sell.
Thus, no one is going to come after these people because they won't be able to find anyone to come after.
- slovette 6y agoThere’s a whole lot of information Tesla keeps and stores about these cars. Every data point is one more risk of being caught. If a thief is smart enough to leverage this kind of attack method, they’re not doing it, because they’re smart enough to know the better car for the gig is a 2001 Corolla for almost every reason.
- nethunters 6y agoTesla isn't doing something super unique in phoning the location home. Talking about Toyota a lot of their post 2019 models phone their location home and other data in real-time. This is used for their hybrid models to coach your driving and make you a more economical driver. Disabling the location tracker may not be as hard as you assume as its done on a regular basis by thieves.
