A group of thieves have been outsmarting smart devices across the Los Angeles area, authorities said.

In a March 4 statement by the Los Angeles Police Department, officers warn that a group in Wilshire is using Wi-Fi jamming technology to disarm surveillance cameras and alarm systems that rely on Wi-Fi.

This swarm of tech-savvy robberies in California is part of a larger “smart” crime wave happening nationwide. Last year, police in Minnesota and Connecticut issued similar warnings to residents when groups of Wi-Fi jamming thieves made their rounds. And those are just two examples of many."

A better alarm system uses cellular data as well, but still loss of communication with sensors may trigger an alarm or not.
Unless the thieves also jam cellular signal.
Then last resort is a conventional-wired alarm and a Doberman ?

 

That won't make it hard for me. I'll just snip wires like I did 50 years ago.
