Clickbait article
Do not click or acknowledge gawker clickbait. Doing so only gives them more money to make more shitty articles.

Don't buy used cables goyim, they are all infected.

>Not blocking all gawker sites with your hosts file
It's like you want to give them money, Anon.
>With USB-C, the surveillance establishment suddenly has a huge incentive to figure out how to sneak a compromised cable into your power hole.
>how to sneak a compromised cable into your power hole.
>power hole.
Gave me a boner.
>>47064150
>Compromised cable
What could they hide in there that wouldnt be immediately apparent?
The only people they could get would be so stupid they should have already gotten them other ways.
>>47064178
Is there a buffer of some sort in it? I haven't read up much on this

there must have been a misprint, a PoC couldn't possibly commit any unethical act.

They could easily hide a chip or something in one of those.

At the bottom you can find sources.
>>47064353
they already do
>>47064369
Yes, I was just answering to the question
>What could they hide in there that wouldnt be immediately apparent?
And hiding a chip in a ferrite core isn't immediately apparent, unless you open it.

Gtfo.
Couldn't one build an adapter that blocks every kind of signal but raw power?

>>47063986
Oh, I get it. You combined Crap and Apple. Very amusing.
>>47064467
you must be gnu here
>>47064362
Nice.
All this NSA shit. Does anyone else remember that anon back in 2006 or something that said he was a part of a team building the infrastructure to listen in to the entire internet traffic in USA in real time? Most told him he was crazy but considering what we know today I'm not so sure he was trolling.

I dun give a fuck about anyone's feels about consumer shit. I give a shit about comedy. Whenever someone says winBLOWS or crAPPLE unironically I want to fucking vomit all over them while fucking them with knives just for the damage done to funny.
>>47064577
Must have been Snowden posting as Anon.
>>47064612
Maybe. It was quite exciting chatting with him in /g/ though because it appeared he knew what he was talking about.
It's called buying a USB condom, they have them doe type A already they'll surely have them for type c. It's an adapter that only allows power through

Way to go, now they can track you on any computer you use the dongle on.
>>47064059
That's why this was a link to an archived version.

TELL ME ABOUT TIM COOK, WHY DOES HE USE THE USB-C PORT?
Luckily I'm not a terrorist, so I don't need to worry about the NSA spying on me or murdering my family.

Take your 3rd videogame may mays back to reddit.
Why is everyone saying that Apple invented USB 3.1 type C?
>>47069508
Because apple invented it like GUIs, the smartphone and tablet computer
archive is down for me
>>47065766

>not designing OP's mother's ports
>>47069527
They also invented NFC, and now other companies are copying them!
>>47064612
>yfw it is.
He does love anime.
So does this mean that given that the port can do video as well you could make a drive that not only identifies as a keyboard and mouse to run the BAD USB code, but also as a screen allowing you to run the code without them seeing all the keyboard and mouse movements?
>>47063986
Glad to see more and more anons since last august using archives to avoid giving clickbaiters hits.
>>47066363
Good luck. It doesn't even have contains any ICs. Just a passthrough for +/-V lines.
>>47063986
link pulled
>>47069508
Because it makes it easier to shit on them and blame them for NSA snooping, I guess. After all, if they didn't invent Type C, then it wouldn't be their fault.
>>47064178
Same way as they can fit a flash drive in this.
