After all, carginogen testing foodkits would be trivial to make, yet they're not sold everywhere. I'll bet you that imagination of yours will stay imagination.

The firmware rootkit for all four major brands of HDD, at the very least, shows that tax dollars were not entirely wasted. Likewise the diddled USB-A cables and Ethernet jacks. When can I pick one up on eBay? For that matter, when do I pick up my Nonlinear Junction Detector. I imagine that soon it will not be necessary to explain what they are; they will be in fashion and sold everywhere. These folks don't really do "break", they do sabotage.

There's no real vulnerability for physically secure systems included and B. There's no actual names on the list. So they can break Juniper and Huawei. Big whoop, so can I. So can you. So can half the Internet. So far the fiat-NSA reads about on par with 4chan. What immediately comes to mind is that
