    I like how they bring up the high profile instance of an accused cheater, spend most of the article explaining that someone hacked the camera in the Deckmate 2 by putting a usb stick in the unsecured port, and then slip in as an aside that the game in question used the Deckmate 1, which doesn’t have an internal camera or a usb port.

      Thanks for pointing that out. It seems that OP is a bot who posts poor articles. Blocked.

        OP might be a bot, but Wired used to be a respectable magazine. Sad to see what it has become.
