On this episode Steve and I discuss a recent report from the University of California that researchers have been able to turn audio recordings of keystrokes into the text typed with 90% accuracy. We talk about other ways to snoop including VanEck Phreaking and the TEMPEST standard.

And apologies for not posting the show notes to episode 5 (they're in the RSS feed but iTunes users never see those).
