SimpliSafe Alarm Bypassed With a $2 Device From Amazon

I just installed my SimpliSafe alarm system today. While I was searching on YouTube, I came across a video from the Lock Picking Lawyer where he unlocks the SimpliSafe system with a $2.00 device from Amazon. This is concerning. 

What is SimpliSafe's response to this? This system is expensive and now I have 2nd thoughts.

Hi @VoodooFish, 

Jamming is a big concern for all wireless security systems. That's why SimpliSafe features intelligent jam detection to immediately warn the user of a possible attack. We even have regular firmware updates to stay ahead of future threats like this. Check out this post on our blog for more info: https://simplisafe.com/blog/jam-detection-update

@VoodooFish Old news. Do a search in the community and you can read all about it.  Possible? Yes. Likely? No. I proved it with my own testing and you can read my detailed response on that testing.  BTW, the one about an "invlisible fence" is not true.  Sleep well.
