But the writers have some easy outs. They can say that it only works once they pick up the hyperspace signature meaning they'd have to be there when the rebel ships jumps to hyperspace. Or they could say the tech was destroyed on Snoke's ship (although they seemed to indicate it could be moved to another ship when they concocted their heist plan).
Or perhaps the 3rd movie will revolve around them needing to destroy this tech. Although I think it is less of a specific technology and more of a technique meaning that now that the empire has the formula, they've got it forever.
I think it just raises the stakes for the rebels to stay on the run.

Or a 'hyperspace cloak' gets invented and we never hear about hyperspace tracking again.
