What do you think about this?
Two major flaws in computer chips could leave a huge number of computers and smartphones vulnerable to security concerns, researchers revealed Wednesday.
And a U.S. government-backed body warned that the chips themselves need to be replaced to completely fix the problems.
The flaws could allow an attacker to read sensitive data stored in the memory, like passwords, or look at what tabs someone has open on their computer, researchers found. Daniel Gruss, a researcher from Graz University of Technology who helped identify the flaw, said it may be difficult to execute an attack, but billions of devices were impacted.

Duh ... I guess "smart phones" aren't so smart after all.
I think it's time for a MASSIVE class action suit against all computer manufacturers and associated Internet peddlers. They sold us a fatally flawed system on which the entire world now depends.
When are we going to wake up to the fact that modern technology is the biggest scam of all time?
