Low heat computers harder to spy on ?

Hello,

This little news item:

http://tweakers.net/nieuws/100770/ap...rosoft-af.html

makes me wonder if another good reason to buy low heat computers is better
privacy protection.

In other word perhaps low heat computers are harder to spy on ?!

As spying increases more and more, perhaps low heat computers will be come
more and more popular

Anyway what ever the case may be, chips and hardware that is designed to
leak less side channel information will receive some of my attention !

So I do hope to see some better hardware in the future for more privacy
protection and bussiness secrets protection.

Bye,
Skybuck.

You mean low power. Which has *NOTHING* to do with spying.
You want to decrease spying to zero?
Easy.
Keep the computer OFF.

It does have to do with spying.

Electro magnetic fields are generated by the processor and other stuff.

These can be measured.

My question is basically if low power devices have lower "electro magnetic
field signatures" as high powered ones.

I would aspect the answer to be yes.

So low heat/low power computers probably harder to spy on them high
heat/high power computers.

Skybuck.

And remove the mains/batteries...

RF at frequences of over 30KHz is typically attenuated to the point of
indetectibity by 1m of seawater.
== immerse computer + operator under a minimum of 2m of seawater and
take precautions to ensure they remain continuously immersed.

Bwuahahahahaha I like this one!

A video of someone working on a machine, sitting next to a coral reef
with the fishies swimming past would make a great screensaver.

THAT is NOT the source that "spies" use.
Just look at the telephone line (dial-up, DSL) or cable that you use
to connect to the internet.
Easy pickings for governments.
Ours have been doing this illegal crap for quite a while; ever hear
about PRISM?
Power level of te computer,like i said,has NOTHING to do with that.
Wake up.
