It's a roku device on the same network as the voting machines and he says that it is transiting way more data than it should be leading him to believe that it was intercepting data from the voting machines and transmitting it somewhere else.
People are oblivious to IT security. Shit I remember when Furby was banned from the pentagon years back, due to security concerns. Now everything "talks" to everything else, it's ridiculous how unsecure a lot of data actually is. At any rate, the election equipment shouldn't be on a network for one, and fucking rando devices shouldn't be on the same network as election equipment.
Yep, and we ushered in IoT... all cheap, insecure, and all manufactured in China. Can’t believe we ever allowed hardware engineering/tech manufacturing, or manufacturing in general to be sold out to China.
