- isayre020888, on 07/11/2009, -0/+29Wasn't this the plot of Ghost in the Shell?
- RocketGib, on 07/09/2009, -3/+26IM IN UR BRAIN HACKIN UR THOUGHTS!
- SemiSarcastic, on 07/11/2009, -0/+8Yes! The Laughing Man will finally get his revenge!
- CanadianRealist, on 07/11/2009, -0/+7Hah, what a bunch of losers!
Everybody knows that you need to use tinfoil. - twiztidsinz, on 07/11/2009, -2/+8In other news, grocery stores everywhere are reporting shortages of aluminum foil.
- EggAndMuffin, on 07/11/2009, -2/+8http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/7496/93524006.jpg
- Ocelot13, on 07/11/2009, -1/+7dude. for brain hacking resistance... nothing is better than tinfoil.geez.
- mogdor, on 07/11/2009, -1/+7"Some might question why anyone would want to hack into someone else’s brain"
Uhh.....because they CAN. Yes there are people out there who get off on power and being able to control people. Whoever is asking this question is seriously naive. - redfox2600, on 07/11/2009, -0/+5Have you ever tried uninstalling Norton before? You can probably blow your own head off with a ***** shotgun and Norton still will be there.
- mrjit, on 07/11/2009, -0/+5We need a Hiro Protagonist to fight this!
- inactive, on 07/11/2009, -0/+4"I hacked the Gibson! No, literally-I hacked William Gibson."
- YumYumTruck, on 07/11/2009, -0/+4or, even better, just sit in the corner in a brain-device induced permanent orgasm, cranking up all happiness to 100%!
- inactive, on 07/11/2009, -0/+4Great, this means we'll have to have brain surgery to fully uninstall Norton Neuro-Security Suite.
- pyromaster114, on 07/11/2009, -2/+5On the bright side, once the devices become complicated enough, and closely meshed with our brains, we'll be able to fight hackers (or become them) on a whole new plane of existence... we'll have the power of our brains to counteract intruders, because in order to sufficiently control something linked to our brain, they'll have to sufficiently control the brain first.
- EddiePotato, on 07/11/2009, -1/+4True enough, if you're talking *unenchanted* metals. Titanium has long been known for its high receptivity to enchantment and imbuement, and properly done, it's properties may greatly exceed those of ordinary tin. The zealots don't mess around.
- bsonline, on 07/11/2009, -0/+3That is actually when it truly takes over, without any annoying OS (you) getting in the way.
- freshgrease, on 07/11/2009, -1/+4I'll just get myself an attack barrier and a few Tachikomas.
- 3rdDay, on 07/10/2009, -1/+4Neurosecurity - the new frontier for L0phtCrack.
- inactive, on 07/11/2009, -2/+5Our brains have been hacked a looonngggg time ago, through a lot of open ports.
It's called Advertising. - mogdor, on 07/11/2009, -1/+3Hacking into my brain, great. Is there ANYWHERE I can safely hide porn from my girlfriend?
- twiztidsinz, on 07/11/2009, -0/+2Pretty much..
- MWeather, on 07/11/2009, -0/+2I was so hoping the future was Buffy....
- mrdude4290, on 07/11/2009, -0/+2well there would be a lot of porn in that too...
- inactive, on 07/11/2009, -0/+2those are called roofies.
- N01SE, on 07/11/2009, -0/+2part of the plots, it is a big part of the movie and the series. That's just another thing your up against if people linked computers to their brains.
- MWeather, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Yeah, eventually. I'll worry about that when I stop orgasming 24/7.
- firebhaal, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1I already hack my brain with lifehacker.com tips
- digitalArtform, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Standard consumer grade aluminum foil does not provide adequate protection
http://www.rosco.com/us/video/cinefoil.asp - bsonline, on 07/11/2009, -1/+2Yeah, that isn't rape at all.
You can hack their mobility subroutines with rope and their alert functions with duct tape. But, in the end, you'll get it in the end. - sarcasm, on 07/12/2009, -0/+1MTV has been commandeering brains for decades.
- unlimitedorb, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Stop hitting yourself. *points and laughs*
- poracious, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1We can still hope against hope that brain-hacking falls through and we end up with Firefly instead, right?
Right? - N01SE, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Depends on how much control a computer would have over the brain, if it had the ability to override synapses then there would be no way to combat, you would be under full control of the computer.
- EddiePotato, on 07/11/2009, -2/+3Upgrade to Zealot's Titanium Skullcap for 1500 gold.
+12 mental hacking resistance
+15 ideological fortitude
+7 tactical persuasion - EddiePotato, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Heeee's a hypnotist.
A hypnotist of ladies. - gmuslera, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Not sure if that will be the next frontier, or it will be your son's brains (and body). From the genetic modification that could i.e. turn fats into CO2, to new educational paradigms that could make them see the world in a totally different way (like in Lewis Padgett Mimsy were the Borogoves, but with no steroids), going thru new senses (like implants and device that makes you perceive north or magnetic/electric fields), the ultimate hacking machine is the still no "fixed" human being.
Will be good? will be bad? Will it worth the risks? Will exist ever the possibility of that happen without massive opposition? - bsonline, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Dugg for Nutella.
Meanwhile, how is logging in with my facebook credentials any faster than using my normal username and password? Especially considering that said FB credentials are actually my email address. - compgeek, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1well played sir well played
- bsonline, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1I'd hack my ex-wife's brain so that she understood every audible stimulus to be "Peanut Butter Jelly Time".
- feralparakeet, on 07/12/2009, -0/+1We are coming. We are coming. We are coming. We are coming. We are coming. We are coming. We are coming.
- bsonline, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Just wait until you're trying to take a ***** when the battle commences, or worse yet...updates.
- mathyu21, on 07/12/2009, -0/+1ghost in the shell
- Type1, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1Thank Zeus, I'm running Ubuntu Brawny Brain 20.04! :D
- ajkrik, on 07/14/2009, -0/+1People have been hacking human brains for millennia. It's called advertising, politics and religion.
- pcflea, on 07/12/2009, -0/+1We are bees in a bee hive.
Buzzzzzzzzzz.. Buuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.. Long live the Queen! - jaschwan, on 07/12/2009, -0/+1They are going to get in my brain? In my brain!? It's another way to control the masses! Destroy all computers!!
- matthekc, on 07/11/2009, -0/+1You would cause your brain to release all it's pleasure chemicals continuously and eventually that would have a negative effect.
- Fitbrains, on 07/16/2009, -0/+1As we learn more about the power of the human brain it is more common to hear about ideas regarding our ability to guide our future, intuition, and premonition. Given that the brain is an electrical, magnetic, and chemical system we should not be too surprised by such ideas.
