I'm always seeing stuff like this

and tales of how cars are nicked exploiting keyless entry but is it actually a thing or just a tall tale? How does it actually work, what will keeping the car keys in a faraday pouch do (obviously it blocks the signal but why is there a signal going out)?

Simple rf signals can be read and copied. Even ones with rolling code can be unlocked with a bit of brute force.

Not sure the keys should be doing anything while just sitting in your pocket though and it'd need to be out of a Faraday pouch to use it anyway.

The "keyless entry" ones use NFC, so they can he read from in your pocket by your car or a hacker within the same range.
