They wrote a fun reply to that where they go over what car thieves actually use (not a flipper zero) and how to hack the sort of radio systems that the flipper zero can handle with wire cut from a pair of earbuds: https://blog.flipper.net/response-to-canadian-government/
this is one of those things where I kinda want one despite knowing I would never actually use it
I had the money when the kickstarter first started and considered buying it, but came to the same conclusion. kinda regret it, but it was probably the right call. Can pretty much do most of what I would've used it for with an esp32 or something anyway.
My pwnagotchi is pretty cool though.
Speaking of which: I’m cooking up an app platform for this purpose on ESP32: https://github.com/ByteWelder/Tactility
Nifty!
