Quadricopters or drones are a new device, straight out of the intelligence industry.......or they were.
NOW......they are playing music! The video originally from the University of Pennslyvania has gone viral. Hardly the stuff of military intelligence, but it surely illustrates the potential.
A potent reminder that remote devices really do have a future! Where do you imagine their future?
Some interesting statistics below. Where do you fit in this pattern?
You may say, my spam level is much lower....... so maybe your ISP has a good spam filter, so you never actually see all of the debris, with only a few getting through.
I ocassionally need to check material prior to any filtering for spam.......and I would think the results are reasonably true. There is an awful lot there that never even seems to reach the inbox, so thank your ISP!!!
On an average day, only about 23% of received email is legitimate, 75% tends to be spam and the remaining 2% leads to malware.
The spam portion is pretty predictable.
The top 3 most common types of spam are online pharmaceuticals (29%), counterfeit luxury goods (17%), and online romance scams (16%). This breakdown has been the same for several years, indicating the spammers are meeting with success. Over 60% in these three alone!
Overall, successful spam seems to feed on people's feelings of inadequacy and need to compensate.
