These vendors are idiots. Utter idiots. I'd rather buy a spyware infected smartphone rather than Bluetooth headphones. I have enough radiation around my head anyway.
"Claims of Model S Hack"
It's not a claim Reuters!!! The researchers reported the issues to Tesla, who fixed them. Tesla fixed them BECAUSE the hack worked. It's not a claim at all.
Scrambles is the incorrect term. The exploit has been around for about a month. You "scramble to fix" something in a few hours or days.... not a month after.
A very interesting article. But people fail to understand that there are other phone vendors besides Apple. Unless all of them remove the jack, then we have no problem. Apple has a problem. No user in his right mind would consider buying a jack-less iPhone. I bought my first phone just because of the integrated MP3/radio player, not the ability to make calls. That was secondary. I never heard anyone say anything good about Bluetooth transmissions. So let's see if Apple pulls it off, but I doubt it.
EU used unconfirmed rumors in the beginning. It was cleared later that ISIS terrorists didn't use Bitcoin, but by that point the ball got rolling and nobody else cared.

That PRnewswire is the most generic thing I've read in a while
I remember a demo of Photoshop from two years ago when they managed to reverse lens blur off a photo. It was only a matter of time.
Rules say no user interaction. It has a full exploit chain.
My thoughts exactly
Florida man returns
That's some good reporting right there. Nice job Manish!

From what I've read. Snowden was actually mediocre.
It's Edimax SP-1101W... are you happy now?
Why is LinkedIn using the CFAA hacking-related law to reveal details about a privacy-related issue. Data scraping is not hacking.

France needs to shut up and mind its business... like dealing with all those crazy ISIS people...
Seeing that the app doesn't need special permissions, tricking the user is the easy part

Stagefright also works via images. The author is not wrong.
Who said the US is the good guy?
Don't censor the people that insult gay people that aren't really gay!

in the meantime the hacker has put up for sale another dataset of 9.3 million records
This is the third time this year... they should just pull the plug and get it over with
