The locks aren&#x27;t designed to be flawless. Even a shitty bolt cutter could take them down in 1 second. They are placed on canvas or plastic bags that can be cut open with a pocket knife. Or you could spend 20 minutes trying all 1000 combinations.<p>It&#x27;s really just to prevent impulse theft from baggage handlers, bell hops, cab drivers, etc. Even after the leak, these are essentially just as effective as they&#x27;ve always been.
