Please give me one example of a burglar caught with one of these boards on their person. Just one please. That's all, then we can justifiably be worried about this new tech crime. Just one example...
What's with the strawmen?
I haven't claimed that burglars are using ARFs. Just that they could be used, and it would be my platform of choice. If I were to program these and start selling them on eBay, there would be no requirement at all for the burglar to have any skill.
Where are you getting this stuff about directional antennas from? None of these attacks need directional antennas, neither have I mentioned them in the blog post.
I don't think you really get computers. Linux isn't a barrier to entry, and running applications as root is ordinary when interacting with hardware. Also, as people who tend to want to get work done, we don't customise the desktop of a machine that will be wiped within a few weeks.
