Well, I even saw something that even that wont stop the evesdropping. There still are ways to track.

@Dashrender I think along the same lines as you. In addition, if some cookies are dropped google has more information than you can imagine, so does it really make a difference if your ISP can see the urls you connect to? My concern supporting it professionally is that their banking site might not work if they are behind a VPN. For a client that I have that was using a load balancer, I had to write rules so that traffic to that site would only go out one interface. Their site couldn't handle the fact that our connecting IP might change. I imagine with the VPN it would be the same type of problems.
Wait - huh? Your load balancer didn't keep all the traffic to a given session on the same outbound IP? I guess I just assumed each browsing session to say, google.com or bankrus.com would stay on a single interface unless that interface went down. Sure two different sights might be access via two of your outgoing IPs, but that normally doesn't matter.

Of course - cookies

Yep. Someone figured out a way to read the signal from analog monitor connections. That's right, if you've got VGA, you can be eased dropped on from quite a distance (I forget exactly how far away, one hundred some feet.)

Researchers found a way to read the CPU remotely (though it was only a few feet, but it was a through a wall. and did require malware on the machine.

yes. This was with a SonicWall NSA250. The second time I had the issue, I contacted the business that had the payment site that wouldn't work. I asked him for the IP of the payment server so I could write a route statement. He said the IP was private for security reasons. I got it from nslookup and asked him to let me know if he ever changes it.

So DVI and HDMI are encrypted?

If he wasn't using sticky sessions.

I think the fact that those are digital vs VGA being analog is the difference.

OMG - private for security reasons, but it's on the bloody internet - that guy needs to be fired, he clearly doesn't understand security.

I don't know about DVI, but HDMI definitely can be. For Bluray and other DRM content it often is.

I believe DVI cannot be. But you can convert DVI to HDMI.

Encryption on HDMI was a major deal when it released.

We all know you're watching porn. Can't we just accept that and avoid the added complexities?
