I've been reading stories about our military and government having bought counterfit Cisco gear, from tiered Cisco suppliers (supposedly legit). Now the normally conservative IEEE hunts for kill switches in chips. While the article is rather specific to FPGA's, it applies to everything. Add stories like: Fly robot, fly and I see bad sci-fi horror stories coming to life before our very eyes, soon. Pleasant Dreams.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
