Doesn’t work as it notifies the person traveling with it.
Of you hide it well enough? I can think of some creative spots in a car, like behind the dash, in the door, inside of the a seat, etc.

As clever as this idea sounds, it's not a good suggestion. I once accidentally left my windows down in SF for 12 hours and my car was essentially stripped clean - headrests, registration, proof of insurance, manual, floor mats - all gone. Additionally all my doors and trunk were wide open.
Sounds horrible and for me it is unimaginable. In Croatia, you rarely hear that a car waa broken into even in bigger cities. In smaller towns a lot of people don't even bother to lock their cars.
Can somebody recommend good charging cables with the data lanes disabled? Would put my mind at ease when I'm traveling.
You could do that, but then you'd need to forgo USB Power Delivery, Qualcomm quick charging, etc. One thing I've heard other comments mention here is a USB condom (USB data blocker). It's just a male to female adapter with only the power lines patched through, not data lines.

-Wouldn't an airtag (or two...) fit the bill nicely? (Assuming even car thieves use iPhones there's some poetic justice to be served in their own smartphones bringing them down...)
I think the airtag might actually alert them that they are being tracked - the anti-stalker features built into the network will alert an iPhone user when an airtag they don't own is in the vicinity while moving and changing locations.

My school had a way to keep peripherals from wandering off, but if all you need to do is swap the cables then I’m not sure that would still work. Wrapping the cables into a wiring loom makes that process slower, assuming the loom is complicated enough. Did you ever use heat shrink? Or locking cable ties? What the school did was run a steel cable behind the desks, then put a loop of the mouse chord through a steel was…
On most keyboards and mice the cables are not soldered on the inside but just a quick connector. You can get a female/male versions of this connector placed on either side of an attiny85 for a quick solderless implant no one will ever see. Then just undo 2 screws, plug your implant inside the mouse/keyboard, screw it back. To make this harder intentionally strip the screws with a drill, understanding you will never b…
I live in Seattle and have had my car broken into three times. Each time, they steal my iPhone's USB cable. I wonder, could they add cellular connectivity to this cable and use it as a GPS locator?

Who buys this stuff? Other things in the shop: > Screen Crab: This covert inline screen grabber sits between HDMI devices - like a computer and monitor, or console and television - to quietly capture screenshots. Perfect for sysadmins, pentesters and anyone wanting to record what's on a screen. > Shark Jack: This portable network attack tool is a pentesters best friend optimized for social engineering engagements and…
Yes, penetration testers, red teams, blue teams, auditors, and a myriad of other security conscious roles take advantage of these tools. > What prevents a malicious actor from buying and using these tools? Nothing. What prevents any actor from buying and using it maliciously? A significantly deeper question. I rather promote this.

Problem in San Francisco is, you'll get people sleeping in your car if you do that.
Depending on the height of your windows I would think sleeping would be the best thing other people could do to your car.

exactly, what prevents anyone from doing anything, really? haha!
