Can you explain? Because I don't understand either.

- jacquesm 12y agoA new form of persistent storage is an enabler, it may create entirely new forms of attack. Whatever you cook up using Javascript, your watch or (that one is really reaching) Net Neutrality is not of the same degree at all, those are just (very slight) variations on existing themes. Writable storage using a centralized access method (file system) is hard enough to purge and keep clean, having a memory mapped persistent chunk of storage that is user process level writable creates an entirely new class of problems. Getting rid of viruses from BIOS flash is hard enough, this expands that concept to all of userspace. I sincerely hope the 'x' bit will be off for such memory.
