When Your Smart ID Card Reader Comes With Malware
I love this comment on the link: For those needing to know, you should only ever use a TAA (United States Trade Agreements Act (TAA) of 1979) compliant CAC&#x2F;Smart Card Reader. This is pretty common knowledge within the Defense IT area, in which I work as a contractor.<p>I know plenty of US Mil and UK Mil and most dont know this! During Covid lockdown it was even possible to listen into UK MOD teleconference phone-in&#x27;s (like Zoom conference meeting but only over the phone line) on more than one occasion, nothing really top secret but there are some pretty pissed off military personnel and criminals trying to smooth things over at the top of the UK.<p>Edit. I will add that the British Govt was lying to the general public in their TV updates because the military phone-in&#x27;s gave away stuff well in advance of it being announced on TV. This was not some reacting to events on a daily basis thing, this had weeks of planning before info was broadcast.<p>Personally Covid seemed like the perfect opportunity to carry out planet wide psychological experiments on unsuspecting members of the public.
