The USB Killer’s website claims it will destroy 95% of devices it’s inserted into. With that kind of destructive capability, one has to wonder how many of these sticks will actually be bought by security experts, and how many by pranksters and malicious individuals looking to destroy someone else’s equipment.

David Thomson assure que son compte a déjà été désactivé, par le passé, de manière automatique en raison de ses contacts géolocalisés en Syrie et en Irak. C’est un responsable de Facebook qui lui aurait fourni ces explications il y a un an, assurant que c’était là « le signe que leur système de censure fonctionne », se rappelle le journaliste. « Pour moi c’est plutôt le signe que leur système de censure ne fonctionne pas et désactive complètement à l’aveuglette. ».
A l’inverse de Twitter, Facebook ne lui aurait jamais proposé de protéger son compte, par exemple en le certifiant, ou en l’identifiant comme spécialiste d’un sujet aussi sensible que le djihadisme. A notre connaissance, aucun programme en ce sens n’est pour l’heure défini chez Facebook.
