On Linux the attack would have faced a lot more challenges though. No autoplay (which was the core attack vector) and you'd hope the SCADA software would run as it's own user under Linux which isn't possible with Windows.
There is a situation where this sort of this is worth, and the base concept is sound (cheaper premiums to verifiably safer drivers).
You'd need a not for profit organisation to actually collect the data. The insurance industry should fund it but have no direct control over it. The organisation would then set out stringent privacy controls and only give the insurance companies a score and no real data.
2) Did you look at a photo of the SBX? And did you read that it has about a fifth of the field of view of a regular radar? And they realign it manually? It should have been shut down quick smart.
If true, what a sad world we live in when laptop with no ports (when charging it) = a feature. And here I was thinking 2 USB ports with a separate port port was too few.
It's still orders of magnitude, both in received power and amount of time the big transmitters have been around for.
And yes frequency plays a part too, but this article doesn't specify any frequency so even if some frequencies were bad, you can't say this one is bad.
Plus this one is induction not RF so it's different again.
If you have a specific concern, tell us. Otherwise I think the radio stations that have been pumping out megawatts for over a century kinda trump a couple of milliwatts over less than half a meter.
The difference is you know a launching rocket is definitely going to be at the launch pad.
If a landing rocket say misses by 10km whilst coming down, it is going to make a big mess. A launching rocket could perhaps launch and then veer off back towards the ground but it is less likely to occur and can be killed a lot faster.
If the 'axe' is perfectly good, then why are you requesting fundamental changes to HTTP web apps and every web browser just to save your 8080 web server one additional hit?
Yep that sounds correct. That is the entire point of GET and POST being different. GET retrieves data, never alters it. POST alters data, never retrieves it.
This is kinda HTTP 101. You might disagree, but then you'd be doing it wrong. You are using a perfectly good axe as a door stop then whining that your teaspoon isn't cutting down trees properly.
Erm, but in that instance POSTing then doing a GET makes sense.
The POST creates the new user. The GET retrieves the information for user 3813812.
How are those two things the same? That is exactly how it is supposed to be done. If your server can't handle that 'additonal' load very well, then I've got a 486 upgrade I'll donate for free.

Which is not how system services are designed to be invoked at all.

This attack doesn't seem to require joining the network in any way.
A simple wifi scan will do it which would still be occurring whilst locked.
What exactly is wrong with anti-caking additives? Generally people don't like their salt as a single solid mass.
It isn't really hard? Big job = lots of people involved.

Looks pretty bad to me.

I feel offended that some people want it to be illegal to offend.
Checkmate. :)
Which is why SLA's are usually monthly not yearly. Otherwise you could just do a 100 year SLA to get really low numbers.
6 hours would completely smash a 99.9% SLA which should be the minimum emergency services should have.
In Turkey that might constitute non-fictional training.
Hmm I'm starting to see why the South African government is doing this.
'godless' is particularly funny on slashdot.
It was CO2 from the native indian's fires.
Really? Hubs are the answer?

1 dollar, per week, for 40 years? $2,080.
In 40 years time you might like that money.
The lottery doesn't come from nothing - if you can win millions then even more millions of dollars are being wasted every week.
So you want to celebrate stupidity?
Smart article yes, but it's still incredibly stupid to buy a lottery ticket.
Oh look here are some SSD optimised file systems already. Incidentally they apply to these drives rather well.

Landing on a barge is just a bit safer if something decides to go nuts.
More complicated, but if I lived in the neighbourhood of that Air Force launch pad, my insurance premiums might go up.

That is a feature. Auto speaker mute when you have a call. :)
