Re: It's Official! Everything connected to the internet can be hacked.
The official report was put out by Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and they should know, otherwise they wouldn't have made a false statement putting their brand at risk while eliminating risk for the consumer: http://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/201408_cfpb_consumer-advisory_virtual-currencies.pdf

Even if you use best practices, anything that connects to the Interneteven big companiescan be hacked.
Woah really? Maaan that's messed up!!! Even if I'm behind a firewall-thing? Also, I'm using this via WiFi, doesn't that make it safer? I mean there's no direct connection, but only air between my computer and the antenna-thing!
Firewall is good, if you light it on fire its 420% safe, man! Also WiFi is okish, but not 100% since there is still an indirect connection over the things that fly through the air. They take the data from the antenna and fly to your computer. Damn bugs!
