I wonder how hard it would be to write my own airgap audio transmission program to send transactions between computers.

Back in the good ol' Trash80 & TI 99/4A days, storage was done not on USB, nor HDD, nor even floppy. We used FSK (frequency shift keying) to encode our ones and zeros as audio tones, and stored it on analog cassette. And we _liked_ it.

Smiley

No reason you couldn't use FSK across the speaker/mic interface.

Now get off my lawn! Damn juvenile delinquents....

Anyone with a campaign ad in their signature -- for an organization with which they are not otherwise affiliated -- is automatically deducted credibility points.

I've been convicted of heresy. Convicted by a mere known extortionist. Read my Trust for details.

I'll have to look into that. I think I'll sit here on the corner of your lawn for now.

Yea.. I posted the article.  Grin

Goto ---> http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/07/this-thumbdrive-hacks-computers-badusb-exploit-makes-devices-turn-evil/

If the SD card has firmware, it would be vulnerable to manipulation by a skilled hacker.  Sad

Hope the link answer your question.
