I found a way around this.
Simply leave your keys in the car door when you go to bed, then when they come to make their fancy key there will be no room in the lock as your own key will already be in there.
Get around that hackers !

I honestly didn't watch the whole video, so I don't know if they were able to actually start the car.

A couple of points, as soon as they open most newer models, the alarm will go off. Unless this decoder gives them the actual code stored in flash memory on the original key, they won't be able to start the car.

If all that fails, you can always get one of these:
