Ask Kia/Hyundai owners how it can't be used. There's for sure cars that are susceptible to this attack still driving around, and the barrier to entry for executing the attack was lowered substantially. It's like if you made an out of the box pentesting tool that was highly effective at breaking into vpns, identifying high value targets, and downloaded those high value database's data at the click of a button.
