| Quote: | | Defcon Lockpickers Open Card-And-Code Government Locks In Seconds - To open a door fitted with the latest U.S. government-certified lock from high-end Swiss lock manufacturer Kaba, an employee must both enter a code up to eight digits long, then swipe a unique identity card coded to comply with a new standard that requires an extra layer of security, one designed to track individual staffers and make covert intrusion harder than ever. Or, as lockpicking expert Marc Weber Tobias demonstrated, you can stick a wire in the tiny display light above the keypad and instantly render all of that 'security' irrelevant. |
...or
get creative :d |

It is no surprise that MS totally lacks security expertise and creativity.
The surprising part here is the shamefully low amount (the award) compared to the research required that is meant to protect their products that yields billions.
If I was a security expert, I would either steer clear of MS or patent the idea myself and then sell it to them instead of turning it in for a miserable 250k.

Nice, indeed. The sad part is the game the carriers play. The www was meant to be available for everyone without limitation.
Not the first useful invention that is vandalized by greedy corporations.
Well, all those the greedy corporations will die soon enough, I hope. The recession is close so my wish might come true sooner than I expected...

Yep. Eventually everyone has to face the music.
But, you just move sales to a country where such laws/patents do not apply, and you continue with your business as usual.
Yes, that means only sales. That's the only thing that they can limit.
If people like it, they will gladly tick the "Yes, I am more than 18' and 'Yes, I am from ...' checkbox when they buy it, thus circumventing the flawed legislation system.

Yes, but I guess everyone knew (or guessed) that since it's natural. Space shuttle hardware is reliable and conserves just a few watts (that is power in case you don't know) - unlike CrapBox.

Could not check this one because the Vimeo web site does not work here. Is it any good? |
