Keystroke recognition uses Wi-fi signals to snoop
-
ThreatPost[^]:
A group of academic researchers have figured out how to use off-the-shelf computer equipment and a standard Wi-Fi connection to sniff out keystrokes coming from someone typing on a keyboard nearby.
Here's 97.5% of my repl
Yes, the math doesn't work on that one.

I don't get it. Is that supposed to be a wireless or wired keyboard? It still don't make sense, unless they are trying to mesaure the distortion of a wifi signial by the sound waves from the keyboard.
I think other researchers have shown wireless keyboards (at least the cheap ones) leak the key data. However, this one is measuring finger movements (like Kinect, but actually being used for something):

WiKey takes WiHear lip reading to an entirely new level by detecting finger, hand, and keyboard key movements.

Not quite, they're capturing the distortion of the signal by the movement of objects (your finger tips) within the RF field.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

That's kinda cool and scary at the same time.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question? The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism. Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Rather than go through all the expense and effort to capturing my keystrokes, they can just ask me what I'm doing.

You don't normally get to give presentations at DefCon or BlackHat for that sort of approach.

Wouldn't that be hard to do with different keyboard layouts (like the ergonomic keyboards)? I can see that working for a single type of keyboard, but with different types it would become much harder.
