Bob’s interweb party house

It’s time to upgrade your house.  With modern advances in Internet-based democracy, and the near ubiquity and apparent legal status of owning lockpick sets, which require a minor amount of skill, and “bump keys,” which require none at all, people can get into your stuff with zero effort.  Don’t believe me?  Ask me for a demo sometime.

Here are the fixes:

1) replace all your external locks.  Abloy, Bilock, Medeco, Schlage Primus, Kwikset Smartkey are examples.  Look for “bump-proof.”

2) of course that’s not enough.  bad guys can still break and open windows.  consider “security film,” a clear adhesive that goes directly on window panes which prevents this.

if bumping was new, i wouldn’t be mentioning it here for my friends.  it’s not new, it’s a few years old, and it’s ALL OVER youtube and other venues.

Note to bump kiddies: bump keys ARE considered “burglary tools” in most states.  It’s one thing to own them, but don’t get caught using them on someone else’s locks, or you will go to jail.
