Of the equipment itself, the hardest thing (from the 'fighting against the dictatorial authorities) is going to be keeping the antenna both mobile and hidden. Depending on what you're trying to do, this might be cumbersome, and you most definitely don't want to be in a fixed position - reusing the same transmission site is going to get your ass radio-direction-found...
To complicate that, most directional (read: high gain, more difficult to RDF or jam) antennas are fairly obvious - only simple dipoles and such (omnidirectional) are going to be easy to hide in plain sight.
We already have that (eg, this wouldn't do much)... and in such cases an FFT would end up being used in, perhaps, some filtering on the audio.
You probably wouldn't be using SDR (where FFT is critical) for this - it's possible, but a cheap and rugged transceiver with a random-wire antenna is probably more practical here. (and on such a transceiver, the FFT, if used at all, would likely only be used in the DSP circuit - which merely helps the operator understand what he's receiving. Filters for RX and TX would be actual hardware.)
They do it because it attracts attention. See the XKCD that illustrates the idea. Sure, the experts know better... but then, the experts already know about all this bullshit. It's the regular people that need a love-tap with the cluebat.
Except in this case, there's millions of frogs in the pot, and a group of them keep instigating the chef to raise the temperature, in hopes all the other clueless frogs finally notice something is wrong...

This could be solved without actually modifying the HDMI "connector" itself - just some body work around it.
No technical reason you couldn't put securing screws around an HDMI connector, is what I mean.
Well, the HDMI connector seems a bit more robust from a physical standpoint, and seems like it would use a lot less metal.
I don't think that's the reason though.
I'm right there with you. My reply was more to head-off the hot-heads, by filling in the gap with some nice reason :)
You're so full of shit. ... You are a pathetic moron.
I think you just proved his point...
This ability to ignore such verses is what separates us from fundamentalists/extremists. It's not a Christian phenomena.
So, you're talking about telemetry?
In companion to my other reply to you, I forgot to mention:

Lets not forget WEP is broken and bad WPA keys are 'easy' now.
Frog in a pot...
Except in this case, there's millions of frogs in the pot, and a group of them keep instigating the chef to raise the temperature, in hopes all the other clueless frogs finally notice something is wrong...
... and these 'hackers' just demonstrated that such an allowance is just a fabricated illusion.
Well, you can. It's just not necessarily a wise idea.

Achievements != Score. Go back under your bridge.
I know of plastic pens, metal pens, and a combination of the two. I don't think I've ever seen a pen (or pencil) made of paper.
Just because it took forever to come to the idea, doesn't mean you shouldn't bother with it. Yes, now is a good a time as ever.
translation: let us keep our spysats (don't read too much into it)
... at least until the first breeze comes along!
What, pray tell, is a "paper pen" ?
Why do those "streamers" then stick to things, though? Is it some other effect (eg static, surface tension)?
"achievements" ruin everything - games included.
Correct. It's all in the stylesheet.
It's a chart. How many different ways can you display it? There's only a few, so no matter what they did they'll be "ripping off" someone.
