Having a Blackberry for work, I would agree with Blackberry as QNX not being the problem. My Blackberry is not compatible with anything and doesn't run anything, so I would find it hard that someone could write an exploit and actually get it to run on a Blackberry OS.

For the first time in history the conspiracists will have a legitimate reason to wrap their cars in tin foil.

At DefCon last year there was seminar on plane hacking given by what I consider a definite expert. He was a commercial airline pilot and certified mechanic and a computer hacker to boot.
Other than the 777, the avionics of a plane do not use TCP/IP and therefore cannot communicate with a PC without a special adapter plugged directly into the avionics.
Awesome seminar, but the speaker did bring up the potential in the future if airplane builders were not careful.

Fired the very next day?? I heard he was fired(balled) immediately right on the spot.
Bad joke, sorry.

The best Spot the Fed story I have heard was several years ago when DEFCON was at the Riviera.
The woman gets up and picks out the Fed. When asked how she knew, she became sheepishly quiet. After some prodding she admitted sleeping with him and while he was still asleep she went through his wallet and found his ID.

Counter spying at its best!!

I took my niece to a One Direction concert, Arizona Cardinals Stadium, sold out. If we ever wanted to make an Islamic terrorist talk, use a One Direction concert as torture. A bunch of teenagers dressed provocatively trying to marry a band member. It would drive them nuts, as it did me.

Correct me if I am wrong, but if someone creates a product that interferes with someone else’s business and then charges them a fee to stop interfering, isn’t that extortion?

I guess they have never been to a Pink Floyd concert, oh wait Pink Floyd pre-dates 1995.

Sorry, our DNA is copyrighted and adding it to our records would be an infringement on the copyright.

Wouldn't be awesome if you could activate an ink dye that exploded all over the person who stole your phone?
Recovering a stolen phone is pretty much hopeless, but at least you would have the satisfaction that the perp looked like a smurf.
Of course the downside, hackers would think it would be funny as hell to set off the dye on people they didn't like.

The problem with AZ is that the power company was paying 4 times the going rate to buy power from solar panel users.
In essence making the rest of the consumers pay for people's solar panels.
If it were the going rate, I would have no issue with solar panels, but why should I pay more so someone else can have solar panels?

Most of the higher paying jobs tend to be salary, which 40 or 50 hours pays the same.
Companies are cutting back on overtime, so the lower paying jobs are kept at 40 hours or less.

Why do I picture an attractive woman in a bikini sun bathing in her back yard surrounded by thousands of drone?
Oh wait, screw the drones, I am still picturing the attractive woman in a bikini....

So it is true, if a butterfly flaps its wings in China .... The Butterfly Effect

Instead of spending $1500, why don't they buy a decent camera with a flash for 1/10 of the cost.
Maybe throw in a tablet for $300 to help documentation.

The Glass sucks at low light conditions and high contrast conditions found in coolers and kitchens.
Using Glass sounds good, but common sense sounds even better.
