To me, I also concur this is a far-cry from a daily scenario. There are plenty of other methods and venues to log keystrokes / acquire data. However, I would not hesitate to state that no doubt 'people' before Georgia Tech were researching such things. It's always nice to see people thinking about the 'what ifs' and turning them into, at least for now, lab-based experiments that work. They need to create another 'Enemy of the State' movie, updated, IMHO. - -benjamin -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJOoJ6mAAoJEO5NGOilLeUcdAAH/RFK15j8xeW3Vht3qfNPFqn3 3eB+xB47yv5ApZJ1ac1/pqeIxB/MnDHRJBO5AkuOs4Yy+A3QLW1AivNRXD1BVrEd MSiqR/BStWW8z+FNpfIBZTwmXswIav3l4BM6bvXf91/DmN/br4qUer728gBdSNn8 cXgyqUYqMqPaeeHEgZLt/Z79Mz9jqAt0v+Sq5XDRXMBPseNX9Qa5eW80a+OYBBMD CtMotvzHygvL4cPKJFbAlgdj2e+bN7WREDPBHY50y8JS5jsXbCExlGmC4Vzuo3I5 BcnnEIzjFqtl0TLYaRYlGGf3VAzwPIBN0fUi2DN9u4i59+vSx5VtIYran0obUP4= =jVbZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
