Guys, you can solve the problem with a keyless entry fob faraday cage from Fob Guard. It's small, light, durable, and fits in your jeans. It's made in the USA, from materials all developed and sourced in the USA. Sorry to be a bit spammy here but I hope that this is exactly what some pipedot members will find useful to protect themselves from this kind of hacking. Cheers!

Why would anyone do that, when you can get something just as functional for a tiny fraction of the price:

Those bags have radically inferior performance characteristics. Try sticking your key fob inside them and see if you can still open the car door - you might be surprised. If you want a tried and independently tested product that will give you -80db across the board, and is made in the USA, you know where to go :)
