Guy finds keylogger in his new Dell
I was opening up my almost brand new Dell 600m laptop, to replace a broken PCMCIA slot riser on the motherboard. As soon as I got the keyboard off, I noticed a small cable running from the keyboard connection underneath a piece of metal protecting the motherboard.
I really wonder if this is in my own Dell 6000d. I still can’t believe that Dell would be doing something like this, however I am not surprised that the Department of Homeland Security is helping to protect them. I wonder how many PC manufacturers are using this type of hardware keylogger as well. Perhaps this is something that is part of the US Governments war on terror, if they have the right to tap phone calls now without any just cause, could they also have the right to monitor all or most of what you are doing on the computer as well?
Makes you really wonder what big brother is up to.
