Reply to comment by MrGruntsworthy in B.C. man says he accidentally unlocked and drove someone else’s Tesla using the app by ChocolateTsar

As someone who has had to move a tesla without any of that I can tell you that it's extremely possible. It was very easy.

fob? owner unlocked/started the car remotely?

Maybe you did mean "drive", and not "move". Otherwise, moving a vehicle without keys (or keycard) is not the same as driving the vehicle. Would you please elaborate on your claim?

We drove it lol. It's really pretty easy to force a tesla into bypass mode. Now you're aware how they get stolen and parted out. Don't use an electronic system that can be failed open!
