thief is still culpable for the crime if he takes the car.
Unless the thief is in a country that neglects, ignores, or rejects your law. This is where the analogy breaks down. Unless you fool the person to come to your (or another friendly) country they can hack you with impunity, that said there has been examples of hackers dumb enough to come to the U.S. after the fact.
A better way to look at this instead of the criminal method is the insurance method. Your insurance company is going to be unwilling to pay for your loss because you were stupid and left your car open and running where Russian gangsters could steal it with impunity.
