Last week, the media went schizophrenic
over the Windows Vista speech recognition ‘loophole’ which allowed
anyone with a microphone to have full access over your computer.
Granted, you must also be partially-deaf, turned your speaker volume to
full, carefully place your microphone next to the speakers, turn on
speech recognition and train your speech profile as if you were someone
else. It might sound incredibly challenging to get this exploit working
properly, but the media assures this exploit is a “fatal flaw”, so
obviously Microsoft is to blame and Vista gets a big red “Fail” on
security.
