I'm an Information Scientist and have comments regarding sign in with no password accounts. I thought GREAT now finally there is a way to avoid my password being hacked by the mind reading stalkers (not joking!), I'm targeted by psychopaths and the government is in denial - anyways, they always hack the passwords and I know from experience the brain is currently the least secure computer in the world - total disaster, as if computer security or rather insecurity wasn't already total.
I have a few comments on this password-less security, firstly I'm no longer of the opinion we should be pursuing traditional cell phone protocols as they have been insecure since the 70's as well there are serious questions about radiation's effects on all living things. Since radiation and information communications are ubiquitous, only the fact that text messages are transmitted without encryption from a local cell tower to the targeted phone (1-2 km in a city or longer in the country). This means that a cheap device can monitor the same cell tower as the victim is in and siphon off the code to be used by the hacker who is logging in to the physical Windows box. Wait you say, what does this have to do with mind reading.
Well you might think ok Stephan, lets add a shared secret on the phone and desktop, then the text message will combine with the shared secret (eg hashtable) and the user needs to use that resultant PIN to login successfully. The problem I have is even if you do these changes, then the mind reading hackers will simply wait for me to grab my phone to see the text message and look at the code - as soon as they see out my eyes with VR goggles the PIN is clear, then they're logging in. So a 'show pin' button to reveal the actual code and a 'electrify moat' button to stop the hackers. Finally, in case of an accident, I certainly wouldn't want to allow a login while I was not at home, so for double safety, making sure my phone is present in the room or nearby the desktop computer would be totally sane. Thank's for listening to my feedback on the new Windows 10 features.
By the way there really is a serious problem with mind reading stalker psychopaths worldwide. The police here in Canada think it's unbelievable and hilarious as if that would happen to "you" and most victims are not believed and forced on medication with incorrect diagnosis of mental illness. It goes hand in hand with the control freak psychopaths using synthetic telepathy to terrorize victims and then make them go to a hospital instead of getting any police attention at all.
Most targeted individuals believe the authorities are in on it since the authorities do target people (terrorists, spies and prolific anti-government criminals) - however, those people don't go around complaining about it and probably don't even notice it until they're in court with secret evidence wondering wtf - nice - but with TI's tortured and abused, it's clearly not the authorities and the authorities are clueless - I spend my days informing the government, petitioning, writing, speaking and it looks like I'll die before anything turns around. There are children terrorized by these psychopaths and they face the same ignorance and abuse. I've had hundreds of death threats due to witness a murder and for 54 months I've tried to get the government to act,
I moderate the Facebook group Targeted Individuals Canada and if you want to support my cause spend 5 minutes to write the Canadian Minister of Public Safety (ralph.goodale@parl.gc.ca) and ask he investigate TI's claims about mind reading and other abuses of advanced technologies. I would love to get back to my expertise and enjoyable career as a Systems Analyst but it is impossible with the mind reading stalking and synthetic telepathy threats etc... I fear I'll never get to do what I love again and I'll be dying in this information war before the government even realizes the seriousness of the situation. Another way to spend 5 minutes to help would be to contribute to my fundraiser here Information Scientist for awareness threat to public safety.
Thank you.
