How to Keep OBD Ports Safe on my Ioniq 6?

[WhoDeyKT]

Has anyone cracked the code on how to keep those sneaky thieves away from our OBD Ports? Its pretty scary these days with thieves getting more clever. They can just waltz up, plug in a device, and poof! They've got access to our car's digital keys on a silver platter. Im on the hunt for ways to protect my OBD Port, but I'm drawing a blank. Any brainwaves on how we can outsmart these crafty crooks?

How about just putting a kill switch? Playing with the OBD might cause some problems in the future since it's electronic.

Put up an ignition coil to send a pulse on one or more of the "data lines". Should break the scanner to pieces.

But I agree with @Noval_tor, using a kill switch is much safer.

Now that you have come up with this topic, I am wondering if Hyundai will find a permanent solution for this.
