Wasnt that exactly the side channel that was feared from badBIOS? Dunno if it was WiFi bands as I dont see anyone confirmed it, so may be a diff frequency
- marcan_42 6y agoA lot of side channels along these lines were feared from BadBIOS (ultrasound was another one). But the whole BadBIOS thing was a lot of hypothesizing started by one security researcher with psychological issues (at the time). Lots of ideas about what could be done, but not a single shred of evidence that anything was actually being done. (He briefly relapsed a few years later saying his Raspberry Pis had been loaded with implanted Ethernet jacks, and I had to spend some time teaching him about what Ethernet magnetics are... I hope I helped calm him down a bit that time)
