Yikes. Wouldn't that effect all fob style entries though? A lot of cars do that.

Yes it will kill any brand's wireless capability, but almost every wireless key fob also has a valet key that can open the door without any wireless connection. Tesla's mistake was to require you to use the wireless fob.

O_o they also have an RFID card that you can use like a regular key, so that doesn't track.

To be fair, original model s and x didn't, that's new from model 3 onwards.
