Talk:Van Eck phreaking

message: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B05wPomCjEY
This is linked at the bottom of the page saying it was Van Eck phreaking, but watching the video it doesn't seem like that's the case, or at least it's not obvious that it is. Can anyone confirm that the video is of Van Eck phreaking, or am I missing something? Cdills 22:02, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I can confirm that this is not Van Eck phreaking; the video just shows the detection of the changed refresh frequency of a LCD display (the frequency dropped for special characters like the è in Christen Democratisch Appèl), not reconstruction of the display.  I've taken out the link. Oliphaunt 22:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The confusion here is that two different types of vulnerable voting machines have been used in the Netherlands. The above youtube video shows an eavesdropping demonstration by wijvertrouwenstemcomputersniet.nl against the Nedap ES3B machine (were it was possible to count the number of non-ASCII characters in the display), whereas the problem with compromising VGA video emanations related to the Sdu NewVote machines. I believe the latter problem was discovered by a government laboratory (AIVD) when they examined both types of machines after the youtube demonstration for the Nedap one was published. I don't think there is any youtube demonstration of an attack on the Sdu NewVote machine. Markus Kuhn (talk) 10:24, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Dutch voting machines

message: I had done this hardware for my University project. It is a very simple hardware. You only need to know the basics of electronics, electromagnetics and antenna concepts.
But the limitation is about the range and usage.
And the output is highly dependent on the target hardware(monitor, cpu) manufacturer.
Some monitors send it out to more than 100m range. Some monitors, less than 10m.
We tried it on LCD. But was not successful.
And dont believe what is said in fiction novels and movies. Unless you dont know the display characteristics of target monitor, it will be very difficult to do a phreaking suddenly from the dark.

Can disclose more info about this hardware ? I am willing to do.. But dont know the rules, since this is a hacking related one.

replies: text: For wikipedia the rule here would probably be Original research.  If you know of somewhere else it is published you could put it in, but if it is all your own work, leave it out.  But also wikipedia is not a 'how to'  manual.  So you can describe how things work, what is in the equipment, techniques used etc, but no a step by step instruction on how to do it.  Also you should not be doing anything illegal, such as encouraging hacking, or releasing trade secret or classified information. GB 23:07, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

text: This discussed hacking technique doesn't allow one to make a copy of a file in any way, what you wrote seem irrelevant. And if you ask my personal opinion on the matter I think US Intelligence wasn't yet skillful enough to use such techniques at the moment of article release, they are just a little bit smarter than police in Sherlock Holmes novels from my experience.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.148.177.179 (talk) 19:31, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

message: However, the practical applications are likely to be limited, unless substantial breakthroughs occur in operability.
Sorry to put this so bluntly, but what the FUCK does "operability" mean in this context? Is specialized training necessary?  Is it time-intensive?  Does the picture quality suck? Just what, pray tell, is the nature of this alleged limitation? --Lode Runner 02:29, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Youtube video in another language 

message: Back in the 80s I used to be able to tell what screen was displayed on some computer programs because the whine of the CRT would change noticeably depending on how many of the pixels were lit and how many were dark. I couldn't tell what was written on it, but I could tell e.g. a login screen and a spreadsheet app apart because they sounded different, and if the spreadsheet popped up a dialog the hum would change pitch and timbre. I could sometimes even tell if a co-worker's DOS or CP/M machine had crashed in some cases.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.14.135.177 (talk) 03:15, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
