Don't forget about the RSA keys in Windows, and that the Antivirus people know of tracing software that the government uses, and will ignore it..... It almost makes me want to go back to some OS from the late 70's or 80's. |

Megadeth User ID: 305838 United Kingdom 09/30/2007 07:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They really dont need to bother with all that, if they need information about a certain individual there are easier more concise ways of getting it, like bugging you up, mini cameras and using pro-hackers to check you on your internet connection. The internet is mostly full of shit, full of shit flavoured spam, in fact it's 90% shit flavoured spam, hardly see the government wadding through all this crap to get to individuals. |

Shady User ID: 291287 United States 09/30/2007 08:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | LINUX Quoting: Anonymous Coward 304793Linux could not circumvent a HARDWARE based keylogger, as that is in a layer independent of the OS (like BIOS). However, there are other ways. Firstly, I would think this onlt records keystrokes. I doubt it could really determine what the mouse clicked on unless it snapped a screenshot of your screen with every click. So a simply program to emulate a "software" keyboard should do the trick of bypassing the keylogger, if it DID exist. |
Mark In NYC User ID: 295445 United States 09/30/2007 08:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Since the new Mac OS X is a beautiful GUI on top of BSD Unix as the core, is it also immune or can the Macs also be set up to have this crap in them? How do you know if there is or is not such a beast installed in your system? And if you find it, how can you disable it without trashing your warranty, etc.??? The new Macs with the Intel processors are faster and frankly great machines. We own a couple of dozen at the office and I have three or four here at home. Hell, when we upgrade at the office, we have employees begging to be allowed to buy their old company machines to take home. We encourage it and will finance the purchase of it allowing them to pay it off over six months with no interest via a deduction from their paycheck every two weeks. The cost is usually under a grand and they're thrilled to be able to get a 1 or 2 year old Mac that cheaply. The other thing about Apple products is that they're useful far longer than a Windows based machine is. Macs that are four and five years old stilll surf the we, write email, print, do graphics and allow database access. Maybe not as fast as the newest and greatest machines do - but they still function quite well for ordinary users. I want to know if they're prey for this hardware keystrok sender units or not? Seems like Apple Corporate would NOT be the typical company willing to cooperate with Homelland Security to do this to unsuspecting users - but who knows? M Life really is a banquet - and truly - most poor sucker are starving! Enjoy the ride baby. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 303804 United States 09/30/2007 08:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Big Brother Britain - Government and Councils to spy on All our phones. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 305835[link to www.dailymail.co.uk] It's hard to believe this shit I built the Sprint PCS network of towers across OHIO KENTUCKY and INDIANA, and was told some amazing info by a switch installer. Every call made thru a cell phone s relayed to a switch. simple enuff but the amazing info is thus . THEY scan a Majority of calls via machines that pick upon keywords spoken like "KILO" "COCAINE" "MURDER" ect and then if the call has a certain number of keywords in it , it is passed to a human for further investigation.. The gentleman and me spent several hours that day as I had finished running the new coax offa the tower, an was helping him finish tieing it all togather inside. Its scary as hell and I never will own a cell Phone. They monitor your calls and search for key words... have no doubt, debunk it if ya like I know what i Know and I bet there is others who know more.... |
