> I too, as the good samaritan that I am, like to stroll through my neighborhood and give all the cars and bikes I encounter a quick pentest, purely for the benefits of the owners of course.
In my neighborhood, "security researchers" can often be seen checking houses for vulnerabilities. During the day, it's usually a woman or a kid with a clipboard who knocks on front doors, checks for cameras, tests if the front door is locked, etc. I'm told they work with crews of men who will come back later to do a more thorough investigation when everyone is gone so as not to bother the homeowner.
Every night, there are other "security researchers" who test all the doors of all the cars parked on the street and in driveways. If you leave your car door unlocked just once, you'll be informed about it the next morning!

It's really something to live in these times!
