Your Tesla is probably vulnerable to hackers, but there's an easy fix

Hackers can likely quickly and easily steal your Tesla Model S, but this high-tech heist comes with a catch: There's a simple way to prevent it.

Oh yeah, and the encryption built into the keys as a protection against this very attack barely even offers a speed bump.
