“This is a guy who had demonstrated the year before how he could wirelessly direct an implantable insulin pump to deliver a lethal dose. The year before that, he hacked an ATM to make it spray out bills like a slot machine. But trouble-making is what he’s paid to do at IOActive, and in that role he has developed a particular respect for the looming power of smartphones.  What about the firm he was working for, IOActive?  The video I put up on Thursday included two specialists who demonstrated how to takeover a car remotely. One of the specialists worked for IOActive. The last tweet by Barnaby Jack, before he died, was to feature an IOActive tweet about the video.”
