As we all know, kiting has gotten a lot safer since its inception. There are pretty good safety systems in place for many situations. Many except for the out of control death spiral and/or getting tangled in your lines to a powered kite or in the surf. What if with the push of a remote control button you could completely detach your kite from the lines thus saving yourself and most likely your gear? Will something like in the video below ever be possible, ubiquitous and commonplace?

That makes my mouth water... I could brute force all 60,000 combinations in less than a second, releasing everyone's kites, or heavy loads. The most common amount of combinations (key space) considered secure with today's computing power: 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,770,000,000

Mine will be locked down with a magic combination of sand & saltwater - that thing is secure

Not judging. Just an interesting observation. I posted this same post here and on another more global forum and there, there were many positive, constructive posts. Here...jokes. Interesting.
