The dongle is the physical evidence. If you physically put it there. If you didn't provide it, it'll be awfully hard to figure out the phone number of the device to perform the attack.
If I wanted my passcode to be known to police in the event of my murder, I could pre-share it with a trusted friend or family member (or a few). That requires no backdoor.
You can also disassemble the phone, remove the SIM, connect it to a stingray tower, or do all sorts of other things to identify it. That's not what they wanted.
Because an air hockey table isn't a wind tunnel. It's a flat surface with small holes producing the air cushion. It's like adapting a firehose to a pencil-sized opening. The smaller the hole, the higher the PSI required within the hole to get the same average PSI across the whole surface.
But the airplane is an airplane. It's got it's own call number, which is not the flight number. They know which airplane went down. It has serial numbers on the parts. There are no airplanes with MH370 stamped on them.
Yeah...so blasting air at hundreds of PSI through tiny holes. Keep your arms and legs over the hoverboard at all times - lest they be chopped off by the high pressure air stream.
No...DC fed into a crystal to generate a clock signal to synchronize everything, but all DC. A transistor works a lot like a diode, and they only let current flow in one direction through them.
Yeah - that's why I said there's great reasoning. But it doesn't justify the cost - anyone can make a cable following that principle for a few dollars.
I'm going to both agree and disagree with you. Yes, everyone missed that this introduced noise making it to the analog side is the reason for the shielding they use. It's not about missing bits that will be retransmitted anyway.
But on a cheap DAC, I get all sorts of PCI bus noise going through my speakers. Have you never owned a cheap computer where moving a wired mouse produces noise through the speakers? Or gotten coil whine from a GPU to introduce noise to the speakers? Obviously an audiophile will own better equipment, but there's theoretically a chance of interference.
Of course the solution for that is just just use optical cable to your speakers to prevent any possible analog noise.
I think the directionality is based on extra shielding that is grounded only on the far end so extra electronic noise isn't brought into the DAC. Doesn't mean it's not completely bogus, but they have great reasoning behind it.
And you've never tried typing with any swipe keyboard? Android's built-in keyboard lets you swipe and spell and is faster than I've ever been able to get with a physical keyboard. And that's one-handed operation.

Murdering are civil rights
I disagree.

Is that the code where 1 becomes K, 2 becomes L and so on?
Not really an important point. Both 112 and 911 take you to emergency services pretty much anywhere in the world, even if 112 is the EU standard.
How exactly do you expect convicted rapists to make a living? Kind of a dumb statement, really. Everyone has to pay the bills.
A bull isn't kosher until it's missing all its blood. At that point, it's not going to leave anything else behind.
Don't forget to put that in a faraday cage, lest some hacker try to induce current in the circuitry.
It makes you invisible. Unfortunately, the powder itself is visible.

Never heard of a brushless motor? A stepper motor?
Yeah, last time I checked my house doesn't have 3-phase power.
No...DC fed into a crystal to generate a clock signal to synchronize everything, but all DC. A transistor works a lot like a diode, and they only let current flow in one direction through them.
I've never seen anything on Facebook that I didn't post there
It works better when you have friends.
Why? Can't you just tell me what you want to say? I already know what I'm talking about.
The noise should be sent to the switch where no audio is playing. That's what I'm considering the far end. The noise won't do anything there.
Yeah - that's why I said there's great reasoning. But it doesn't justify the cost - anyone can make a cable following that principle for a few dollars.

No - because they pick up so much noise. And the wire can literally break inside from being too cheap. I know, because I threw out my cheap one.
