hope so... it would (maybe) make people realize how bad of a privacy invasion it is... cars should not have a visible tag... they should also not have all these wireless transmitters (like TPMS with unique IDs)

I suppose I could keep an RTLSDR in my car running rtl_433 at all times, and just filter out my own TPMS IDs...
