  2. Can i have one mom? by Noviota · · Score: 2 · on 19" Monitor Goes Portable

    I would love one of these.
    But it would be better with a few enhancements.

    how bout splitting the images apart a few milimetres to give realistic 3d images.
    Making the viewing larger that 800x600. Come on who uses that on 19" these days?

    Other than those two, how bout adding some style to the way they look.

    On another note I wonder if tempest would work on these.

    These could be the future of computing displays. WIth these why not add a greater viewing angle and have a virtual keyboard. Chuck in a few vr gloves too.
    Might reduce RSI and OOS.

    Encryption.. PFFT

    We are in a world where things like Exist.

    There is no need to place bugs, no need to break encryption. Read those links!.

    You can now be spied upon without having any evidence of it being done. You better start encasing you house in tin foil :P

    There is also technology that can triangulate your possition using cell phones (using the cell sites) but pdas etc can also be triangulated using modified versions of tempest.

    we are in a world where nothing is private. You can either give up and surrender the rest of your life or the whole world as one big group can go against the government. The one thing governments are scared of is having no support from the civilians.


    Ok facts finished just a lil conspiricy theory of myne on the side? Why the hell are there so many conspiricy movies made. Is it done by the govt to make us laugh at all conspiricy stuff.
  4. More Information by Plasmic · · Score: 3 · on Coming to a Desktop near you: Tempest Capabilities

    Already, a few people have posted expressing their misconceptions about what TEMPEST is. In a nutshell, it's the process by which radiation given off by electronic devices can be captured and analyzed in order to gather information about what that device is doing.

    A good example of how it can be used was given during the October 1996 episode of Discovery Channel's "Cyberlife" show.

    A couple other decent sites with more information about TEMPEST are:

    Purely depends on the quality of the monitoring equipment - picking up individual monitors in one room can be done: let me refer to a demonstration done by Frank Jones (CEO of TheCodex)

    "We had no problem viewing computer screens on adjacent floors in the building (we were sometimes hindered by noise) and were able to differentiate (to my surprise) between different computers in a large office. We aimed our device out the window across the street at an adjacent office building and were able to view CRT screens without too much difficulty."
