  • If that doesn’t work, turn on the tv and try to repeat the words you hear immediately after you hear them, but absolutely silently. The goal is to echo the television ij your head.

    Fast forward a month or two and his ISP tells him that they traced some pretty serious botnet shenanigans to his IP.

    Just because someone is smart enough to use a device doesn’t necessarily mean they’re intelligent enough to use it safely.
