Honest question, is it possible we are approaching a future where metal keys will be rendered obsolete by 3D printers and low-light phone cameras? Maybe Lockit

Maybe Lockitron is much more than just a convenience.
Just a thought.
- VLM 14y agoBe careful when defining obsolete. To protect one site they're already obsolete except for some pretty exotic high end locks. Metal keys will never be obsolete from a police perspective because here's "burglary tools" to bust people, and patterns to discern, and a piece of metal evidence with fingerprints, and ordering history, and shipping history... They may be useless for protecting one site, but they're a great tool for busting a serial burglar who's done it a dozen times.
