Yeah, I rewrote a system for a company that did this. If it makes you feel any safer, the original codebase was an error-prone mess written by an intern.

It’s not any more, but all it did was ping for MAC addresses at both ends of the stretch. I suppose the data could prove your presence, but it’s the presence of your car really. At least with Apple the MAC gets cycled now.
