TY again for your posts! Sounds like someone has to be in the same room. I did hear about this on Steve Gibsons podcast a while ago from some college kids research who did it successfully. but guess I didn't think of it as something practical. "The researchers found a way to sniff USB keyboards, but older PS/2 keyboards, which have ground wires that connect right into the electric grid, were the best." And so they can still sniff usb keyboards apparently. And contrary to what Tai believes, it also works on laptops... Still think its not something to worry about unless in a public setting, and even still probaby very uncommon. Then again, the government agent can break into your home and place a device. But I always say in that case, you have way more other problems to worry about, and they have more practical devices to put in your home. At that point they might as well use a camera and just watch your keystrokes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
