This is where the story falls apart. I own both a HackRF One and a Flipper. I thought it would be a great teaching tool for my kids to show them physical world insecurities. While it's a great device it's nowhere near as potent as the HackRF as a real tool. And straight out of the box the Flipper does very little from a nefarious point of view.
The "influencers" did a great job of hyping it up on YouTube and Twitter. And my guess is that the majority of the devices sold will be used to pop Tesla charge port doors for giggles. I've gone through a few different firmware and repos and you've got to have just as much interest to learn and use compared with an SDR. And in fact in many cases the Flipper is harder to use because it's limited by its physical footprint.
It's a fun little tool but it's not making much "point and click" besides a handful of known replay attacks that shouldn't have existed in the first place. If anything I hope the Flipper pushes the likes of physical access systems manufacturers / integrators to be questioned on why their systems fail to authorize access correctly against trivial attacks. This is not the fault of tools like Flipper.
