This is about a new device named the WarKitteh collar, a name which the Viking Kittys might approve of. Who knew that cats could be so useful -and sneaky?

If I tried to put that collar on my cat the thing getting hacked would not be Wi-Fi.

Someone wired up a simple wifi snooper and stuck the thing around the cat’s neck.

Cat strolls through neighborhood and logs all the local wifi networks looking for those with weak or no protection.

A cute cat hack...paging slings n arrows :-)

Someone could go router sniffing with the same equipment attached to a quadricopter drone and fly it all over the neighborhood.

Hmmm. “The link has more info...” should have been “The link below has more info...”.

Need to proofread more.

Despite the title of his DefCon talk—”How To Weaponize Your Pets”–Bransfield admits WarKitteh doesn’t represent a substantial security threat.

Piker.

There are 101 uses for a dead cat.

My favorite;
“Wait until their furry lil body is in the early stage of rigor motis. Then, straighten them from head to tail, making sure the tail is exactly in line with the spine.

Then take the two front paws and curl them under.

After full rigor sets in, Voila’!!!

You have a cute toilet bowl brush....

(it’s a joke people!!!)

I just turn on the war drive app in my Android phone. Ride around on a bicycle. Why annoy a cat?
