    This is how we get conservatives to hate Musk again. Convince them neuralink will give them the gay.

    I want to send this to my friends but they don’t know what a Flipper Zero is or that Neuralink started human trials. First-nerd problems.

      If a stupid ass flipper zero can mess with those devices then the security testing done is zero and the fault lies mostly with the manufacturer (the flipper zero script kiddie is still partially at fault)

        This always reminds me of Xiaomi “smart” devices that will ask you for a password, but password is only in the interface so if someone connects to the device and sends a command directly the device will oblige.

        Sure, that’s not as critical as medical devices, but it feels like everything nowadays is manufactured with the same mindset: if I don’t know this might become a problem, I ignore it

        Which it most likely will because if we know one thing about companies musk is involved in is that they usually cut safety and regulatory Jobs first

          They may not be toys but they don’t do anything your phone can’t do

            My phone won’t let me arbitrarily transmit over its radios. My phone also won’t let me load custom forked firmware for even more control over its hardware functions which were barely locked down to begin with, but that’s more of a “choose the right tool for the job” kind of thing.

                  I mean, kinda both, I suppose.

                  My dad was Greek, but he was adopted and brought to America at a very young age, and his adoptive parents were not Greek, so he was rather completely divorced from Greek culture. I like to consider myself Greek, but I don’t have as much connection to it as I’d like.

                  And, well, I’ve been questioning my gender for a while, so I decided to make this account to try on a more feminine persona. So far, all I’ve really figured out is that girl me is much more into memes than boy me was.

              Well i guess that depends on the phone. I fore example have a custom rom wich definitely gives me more control over my phones harware functions.

        True, but that doesn’t excuse messing with people’s lifesaving health devices. They use them because they have to, not because they want to.

      Is anyone actually out there doing these things in the wild to unsuspecting people or are you just talking about like using it to demonstrate such things?

      The most worrying part is that a few old hotel door locks can apparently be broken into with it. IIRC they intentionally limited the flipper zero to only doing basic stuff through software, other projects with similar hardware can get into more secure systems (i don’t remember exactly where I read this but there was one specific protocol I think)
