Handheld radios are mostly not useful in an urban setting (compared with a cell phone), and only other radio users can even be bothered by them.
Unlike "drone spotted in posh neighborhood looking into windows" as a headline, "Baofeng user briefly interferes with garage door opener" just doesn't have any edge.
I think the flipper zero/hack rf side of things is the bigger problem. Its very useful to whitehats but they also lower the bar for a lot of disruptive attacks. Get a flipper zero and war drive any neighborhood built in the 80's and its prime hunting ground for forcing garage doors. I'm surprised we haven't heard more of that actually.
It’s a bit of an information hazard. E.g. what if someone made sewer pumps run backwards. Meanwhile the level of exploit capabilities is on the level of Spectre. There is such a wide gulf between what is and what should be that we can’t properly discuss it.
