Somewhat insightful article.

The only realistic goal, Farid believes, is to keep prevention and detection techniques sophisticated enough to stop all but the most determined and skillful. "We’re going to make it so the average schmo can’t do it," he says.


I'm guessing this guy has never seen the work done here and on the Site That Must Not Be Named?

I'm an "average schmo" and my Pigeon Punt picture fooled my family members and quite a few people I work with. Truly great choppers (claf, marco, btvs, etc.) would have fun with this guy.

SO im not the only one that read that article after all. I half-considered mentioning it on here but then figured everone would be all "Hey, Mason is a nee-rrrd,Mason is a nee-rrrd." if I revealed that I was a PopSci reader. Now I donthaveto worry about it! Iwas kind of annoyed that they didnt bother looking up any new pics to use, everyone but nobody has already gotten those ones in their email inboxes multiple times from people going "wow, look as this!"...And I was also annoyed that they were ALL from worth1000. I guess the article writer was just too lazy to bother looking for multiple sites.

Sorry was I reading between the lines again? Laughing

Seriously mason, I love popsci and popmech. I'm also nerdly enough to admit that I'll check out New Scientist as well. Plus I watch way too much TLC and Discovery channel.

So I have the corner market on nerdom here.

Hmmm... come to think of it, the magazine does arrive in my mailbox wrapped in brown paper, like porn.

they act like changing lettering/wording on a picture or altering it in some funny way is a shocking and new concept. Laughing
