I liked your post and would agree to you on this one... "It just doesn't add up". There is just no way the CIA messed up with something that they !can not! mess up with. However if I was in charge to bring down one of the most sophisticated remote controlled spy plane in the world. I wouldn't try to out smart it, I think trying to out smart the CIA is just stupid. I would just place of team of rocket guru's together and figure out the max speed and turning radius in order to build of bunch of rockets that can take it down by using simple and harsh nets and parachutes. Most of the time the most simplest and cheapest way to do something is the best.
I like to call this idea "Ohkams rockets"
So I am asking you guys? If you were Iran and had to take out one of the most sophisticated remote controlled spy planes in the world how would you do it? Shoot it down? Hack it? Jam it? Make it watch Fox news until it gets so stupid it lands on the enemy airstrip? Or just say f' it and fake the whole thing?
Nice, I enjoyed your input and would agree with you. "It just doesn't add up". Honestly the way I see it, if "I" were in charge of a way to capture one of the most sophisticated spy equipment that the CIA has. I wouldn't try to "out smart it" by jamming it or cracking the it. I would just figure out that these things are probably slow due to it's ability to stabilize as a "wing" object, figure out the max speed and turning G's then create a bunch of rockets built to outrun and "capture" it by using some sort of primitive harsh net with parachutes. Outsmarting the CIA isn't the way to go. Usually simple and cheap is the best way to go so you might as well go cheap and go rough if your going to play dirty!

So I am asking all you nerds out there if you were to design a way to bring down the most sophisticated remote controlled spy plane how would you do it? Jam it? Shoot it? Hack it? Or force it to watch fox news until it becomes stupid enough to land on an enemy airstrip?
"you can surf the internet from the UEFI interface"
Even though it might be highly useful to network this way does anyone see that this could be a major downfall?
Aren’t they just taking the most important part of the computer and opening it up to everyone?
