Be imaginative, a security hole opens other opurtunities . That's the first mistake assuming that everyone's uses the software as intended and gives it sane inputs . A flawed IOT (internet of things ) could give away for example your wifi password etc . Like some so called smart lightbulbs actually do . For example script injection only works because someone assumed that in a field in a web form marked "name" 100% user would actually just write thier name and not for example paste in code snippets :) and watch the fun . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
