MOSCOW, September 9 (RIA Novosti) - A new anti-surveillance wireless device, Cyborg Unplug, developed by programmer Julian Oliver can detect and block drones and other devices from accessing ones wireless network, Wired magazine reported Tuesday. <\/p>\n
Basically its a wireless defense shield for your home or place of work. The intent is to counter a growing and tangibly troubling emergence of wirelessly capable devices that are used and abused for surveillance and voyeurism, Julian Oliver said in an interview with Wired. <\/p>\n
Oliver created Cyborg Unplug as an easy to use and affordable commercial product, ranging from $50 to $100, following this summer's popularity of his Glasshole.sh program intended to detect and block the Google Glass device from locally owned and administered networks. <\/p>\n
In addition, the device can enable the blocking of devices belonging to other wireless networks they are associated with, such as paired devices in an All Out Mode for which the company states that, Please note that this [All Out] mode may not be legal within your jurisdiction. We take no responsibility for the trouble you get yourself into if you choose to deploy your Cyborg Unplug in this mode. <\/p>\n
The owner of a Cyborg Unplug can select the devices they choose to block, which shall be automatically disconnected and will not disrupt any untargeted signals. <\/p>\n
According to the Cyborg Unplug website, pre-orders for this device will begin September 30 with the detectable devices including Google Glass, Dropcam, small drones and copters, wireless microphones and various other network-dependent surveillance devices. <\/p>\n
Following the pre-orders starting on September 30, shipments to the European Union, United States and United Kingdom will begin while they work on updating their locations. <\/p>\n
