This is harmless fun right? Like it's not like this will cause damage in anyway or impact security?

No, but this is a good demonstration of how insecure Teslas are. You can steal a parked Tesla with a $10 homemade device.

If you can manage to crawl in via the charge port? :)

What I find particularly humiliating is that to open the cap you have to issue a voice command, "open butthole". Really off-putting to say that sort of thing. Black mark against Tesla as far as I am concerned.

Is that the only command that works?

You're joking, right? You can basically say "open whatever" and it will open. And additionally there is a button on the screen and in the app and you can press the lid or press the button on the charger.
