CO2 is a gas vital to all life on earth. The concentration is very minute, and its effects on global temperature are totally dwarfed by the dominant greenhouse gas, water vapor. The "climatologists" are politically and economically driven, not scientifically.
Confirming you need CO2 for photosynthesis, however we are putting too much into the atmosphere.
I hear Venus has lots of CO2, maybe plants will grow there really well.
I'm implying using the remote desktop capability to install the malware in the first place. Seems risky building something like that into a program designed to browse, and run code from, the internet.
It actually sounds brilliant. Normally I have to direct victims to an attack site, persuade them to download the payload, and run it to allow me in (actually, I prefer to covertly install such agent). Think drive by download, social engineering attack.
If this works as advertised, it could make things a whole lot easier. Combined with the fact that Chrome can be deployed as an MSI, and extensions can be pushed and locked with GPOs, this could make identity theft much easier.
While I can see the appeal for tech support, any security hole in the browser could be creatively exploited, possibly even activating this capability as a brand new attack vector. It seems like a good idea, but remember that a malware writer might say something different......
Probably because its about a world where people are essentially constructed for a specific job and kept under control by sex and drugs. Some people seem to get uncomfortable with some of that.
Remember kids, scrub the browser's cache (temporary internet files, cookies, everything) at the end of every session, and after logging out of facebook.
I think a major barrier to the uptake of OSS in general is training. Most high schools teach MS Office, Flash, and Visual Studio instead of their open counterparts. People like to use what they're familiar with. They may not even know that an OSS alternative is available, let alone that OSS even exists.
From my understanding of the technology this simply places a lightweight OS between the traditional bootloader and the BIOS. The BIOS doesn't have much space to store malware in, and since its different on different motherboards, why even try when you'll probably break the system anyway.
Doesn't providing a lightweight OS that has access to far more storage and all the hardware in the machine that starts before your OS boots present a new era for virus writers?

It seems obvious that horrible things probably will happen because of this, its only a matter of when.

Yeah....To me. the entire windows 8 feature set smells of guaranteed failure.
Windows isn't a walled garden yet.
Yes, I can see the significance of that extra zero...

Once some lab figures out how to do it it will seem so easy in hindsight.

I agree, I refuse to participate in the social networking cesspool.
Thank you, maybe they'll listen to you. American space exploration has been in a state of decay for a over a decade.
