Secure it? Nah, let's just make it illegal.

Stoplights can be changed to green via an infrared signal.  This is so that police and ambulances can get through traffic faster.  Some people are using it to their own benefit.  So, the US government is trying to make these devices illegal if not authorized.  Hmm, sounds like cell phone companies when responding to the thread of eavesdroppers.  Why bother adding any security measures when we can just make it illegal?  I mean, no one ever breaks the law, right?

Why not just walk into the bank in the day time, go behind the counter and just take the money.
I mean.. its illegal.. and in theory you can just walk right in during day hours...not every bank has a guard. why put it there if they dont expect us to take it right?
its a silly argument. we have laws so people can respect them, not every law is designed directly with a safeguard against people who want to break it. the one in place is somewhat effective for most people.. and its called "legal ramifications" - ie jail, fines, etc.

My point is that this type of attack, like listening on a cell phone, can be done in a manner that makes it hard to catch the attacker. Robbing a bank is a physical assault where making a getaway isn't always that easy. [And on top of that, bank robberies are not that uncommon.]
