That would work if you can open the case without breaking it. Modern TVs are usually clipped together and the bezels are really thin. It’s very easy to crack the panel when trying to get the case apart.

In that case, it should be disposed of like an SSD that contains sensitive information. Find the flash chips and either drill holes through them or smash them into dust with a big hammer.

If you are going to have smart devices, put them on their own VLAN. They should not have access to the rest of your network. TVs shouldn’t be connected at all. Use a PC or android box if you want to stream stuff.

The ESP32 wouldn’t be able to adjust settings without a lot of hacking, but it wouldn’t be hard to add a temperature sensor so it could monitor that.

Just connect an ESP32 to the door switch and use that to notify your HA server.

There’s no reason they couldn’t have an app that talks to that serial port as well.

They should have used a virtual serial port then. That way you could just type commands using your favorite serial terminal.

That’s comparable to what a skilled navigator can do with a sextant and chronometer. That’s more than enough accuracy to cross the ocean and get close enough to the port that you can see it.

It may not even be the website that leaks the data. It could be the payment processor they use that has a data breach.

They need to support it on the Moto G phones so people can actually afford them.

I could give 2 shits if China is spying on me.

Someone will figure out how to use the backdoor on the Chinese router. Then they can bypass your firewall. Now your router and all of your insecure IoT devices will be part of their botnet. They will sell your internet connection as a residential proxy or use it to DDoS websites.

Businesses need to start banning smart glasses with cameras or at least require the cameras to be covered with tape.

Luckily the alerts can be turned off in the US. I don’t want to be woken up for something hundreds of miles away.

One stick of 32GB has been removed and sent back to client with unit.

No, the stick they removed was faulty. They sent it back to the customer instead of replacing it under the warranty.

You just need the right oxidizer.

They both work.

echo "127.0.0.1 facebook.com" >> /etc/hosts

Just put the phone in a Faraday cage and turn off the bluetooth devices. You will need an older car without bluetooth and telemetry built in though.

The easy way to remove the malware is to install Linux.

They only tested frame rates. There was no real difference between PCIe versions and most games ran nearly as well from SATA SSDs.

It would have been nice if they tested load times.
