seems eagle eye wasn't so far off lol. using other audio devices to act as repeaters really makes the possibilities of this pretty amazing imo.

I was pretty freaked out by the NSA's manufacturing of USB cables with firmware type malware and radio transmitters built in. I can only imagine how they got these into "the market" and at what numbers. Most disheartening is the fact NSA inexplicably seeks out the word marijuana in their games

There's definitely custom software from the NSA along with hardware. regardless they have this conversation even now
