Can we call it a theory when it's being demonstrated in the video? And when Wikileaks has not yet been shown incorrect in anything they have released? When the light of day exposes wrong-doing, that helps destroy it. Edited March 13, 2017 by John_S_in_Penna (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

padgett Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Think the bottom line is that today, nothing is hidden. OTOH it can be obfusticated. Has been a lot of water over the dam since the great bald eagle coined the CIA acronym - Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability - one is trivial, two is merely expensive, all three is nearly (but not quite) impossible. Would you believe cryptography was a hobby long before it became my job - and started being paid the last year Pontiac had a tripower ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Wildeisen Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 At least the WOPR is not in charge anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorer32 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Frankly I'm more worried about the WiFi monitored defibrillator in my chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60FlatTop Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 When a 68 year old redneck mechanic from western New York can quote TCP port numbers in casual conversation and accesses files at home remotely using the octet IP address, the mystery has kind of vaporized. And the three later generations can do better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_padavano Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I guess my reaction to this article is DUH! http://www.motortrend.com/news/fbi-alerts-public-dangers-car-hacking/?wc_mid=4035:5581&wc_rid=4035:764561&_wcsid=978BEDEDDC09B1571875F5C2EA925D7DCE515358DADEC2F9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Thanks for the link to the Motor Trend article, Joe. Our little discussion here beat Motor Trend to the news, and was much more complete. I find it ironic that the F. B. I. is alerting drivers to possible hacking, when a different branch of the very same government, the C. I. A., is reported to be doing the hacking for deadly purposes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
