What use for lock picking is there, unless for trespassing or other nefarious things? (also leaving Houdini out of this lol), is this a hobby for some? @voltronic
It's a huge deal at Defcon in Vegas every year.

And around and around we go, where we’ll stop, nobody knows.
So yeah, non-criminal lockplicking (and hacking) is vital to helping lock/security program/etc engineers stay competitive against the criminals.

Another way to look at Lockpicking is to look at it in a similar light as hacking.
The bad guys are doing it regardless. What better way to figure out how to protect yourself from them then than by having people trying to bust in and then teaching you how they did it and how to keep them from doing it again?
Crime and crime prevention are a never ending arms race. Better locks or security programs/codes beget better Lockpick/hacking techniques beget…
