Nothing, really. Flipper doesn't do anything you couldn't already do with a little technology knowledge, it just puts a number of them in a nice package with a UI.

It will just mean we have more script kiddie level physical PEN 'hackers' being a nuisance to the public and causing laws to be passed to lockdown the technology. Makes me think F0 is a (((tool))) that will bring about more draconian technology restrictions in the name of (((security))).

Now that, I can see happening. It's an interesting tool with uses, but people who don't understand anything about technology will go "MUH HAXx0RsES!" and pass knee-jerk laws to prevent the things from happening.

The device itself will be banned, and the rest of us will go on making similar tools out of the same parts flipper is made from.

yea but its become mainstream. the ui removes a lot of the learning curve. I like them but I'm sure people are going to start to fuck with airplanes or something

You can read cards and play back signals and things, but you're not fucking with aircraft.

It will let you into secured areas if you can read RFID badges of certain vintages.

You've been able to buy radios that can splatter over the aircraft and weather bands for years. No one cares.

The problem is not the flipper but the shitty tech running our lives. Even though everyone is right and Flipper can't do things you can't do with a cheap device shit like this will cause the public to "demand action"....

...hell a bunch of NPCs finding their Tesla charging ports open will be enough to "demand action". They've already pulled the CC feature from stock firmware to keep from being banned.

I've actually been thinking of picking one up. I've known about them for awhile but just in the past few weeks I've seen an interview with a white hat hacker and how he catches pedos and he brought his own flipper to the interview. It was totally customized and badass.
