"It seems they just figured out that they’ve been tracked because the video got out before they planned. I was talking to a computer whiz friend and he said that if the feds got it before it spread throughout the Jihadist community then the feds can put a tracker on the bios for every time the computer turns on it’s being tracked. He said what makes this “cookie” special is that it can’t be removed even if all the hardware is replaced, except for the motherboard."

Really? That's interesting, but I'm not convinced. If you or your whiz friend could provide some links on that topic, it would be much appreciated by many here.

I’ll ask him but most of what he yaps about is stuff way over my head. I did try to look up some of the stuff but most of what I found is worms, Trojans and viruses that attach themselves to the bios.
