Burglar Discovers You Can “Peel” Cybertruck and Access the Inside
Burglar Discovers You Can “Peel” Cybertruck and Access the Inside
A clever car burglar broke into a vacant Cybertruck by popping one of the windows ajar and then peeling it wide open.
"No Alarm, No Notifications to my phone... literally nothing happened just found it like this..." wrote Cybertruck owner Anuj Thakker, who shared the upsetting news on Facebook a few days ago.
Don't buy stuff from a con man
101It's a rude awakening for Thakker, who may have bought into the Cybetruck's various security features
May?
They don’t know? They didn’t, like, ask him?who shared the upsetting news on Facebook a few days ago
Oh. They wrote an article about a Facebook post without any follow-up questions.

-3Imagine if you subscribed to a YouTuber and they had good content. You subscribe to their patreon. At some point later, they take on a bunch of sponsorships, and eventually they just become a corporate mouthpiece for their sponsors. Then their entire channel just gets bought by the corporation and is ran as a corporate social media account. At what point would you cancel your Patreon subscription? Would you say that refusing to pay that YouTuber for their videos means that you have a part to play in the process whereby they ultimately ended up as a corporate social media account?
Because that is ultimately what happened with the media, in my opinion.

76You don’t expect me to eat a car peel and all, do you? How else do I get at that delicious sweet car meat?
3Jaws of life.

I should feel bad but I don't.
73I hope the Kia Boyz take notice
69Oh, he shattered the window and peeled it down. I was picturing peeling the whole side of the vehicle down.
32Not the whole side, but several high end German cars in our neighborhood where attacked with a can opener to access the wiring to the alarm. Once that is off the car is gutted. Steering wheel, center console, dash.. everything gone. While on your driveway.
7Just take a comically large tuna can opener and peel it like a can lid

But if you've been following the development of the Cybertruck, the glass window's failure does not come as a huge surprise.
That right there is the best sentence in the article
22Okay, everybody! Who wants some fresh, hot brain implants?! Line up!
16The burglar then peeled down the window and reached inside for an unattended backpack…
I don’t care what kind of vehicle you drive - if you leave thief-bait in plain view, don’t be surprised when your shit gets broken into.
10Well he also shattered the window with a crowbar and the bullet proof sticker or whatever kept it together instead of a million pieces. It's actually a win for cyber truck the fail is the alarm didn't go off and there was no notification to the owner. Window peel is the least interesting part of the story.

8TBF all cars are susceptible to broken windows
4Not without the alarm going off
31Not necessarily true, most alarms only go off when a door is opened. If they break a window to open the door from the inside the alarm will sound, but if they break the window and leave the door shut: silence.

But it takes more effort and make more noise to break cat windows than "peeling" it
10Sure, but a 100.000 dollar car that is sold as a bulletproof car that can drive over other cars in an apocalypse?
6He didn't use a bullet.

Cybertruck is only cool and practical in Fortnite
-4Isn't the car not actually driveable or something in Fortnite?
10It drives for up to four hours before suffering a mechanical fault, then you have to get it towed and wait six months for repairs. The game is hyper realistic.
