Honestly, you're just being argumentative. The researchers haven't proposed that they've backdoored your computer, but historically every impressive hacking feat is built on a stack of "obvious in hind-sight" novel abuses. Instead of writing it off as Rube Goldberg over-engineering, it would be a lot more useful (and fun) to consider what these sort of attacks could do in less obvious conditions. The people who put the 2600hz tone whistles in the breakfast cereal didn't anticipate Apple computers. |

Having slept on it, I still can't come up with a situation where the "average screen color" mode reveals anything that wasn't already public with higher fidelity.
Maybe you can help me out?
