John C. Dvorak: Here’s a product tip for those wanting to protect their belongings. There’s a device called the Kenny AI, which you can find on Amazon or at kinesisium.com. It’s a small motion detector that you can place in a drawer or any location you want to monitor. If someone opens the drawer, it sends you a text message alerting you to the tampering.
Adam Curry: Does it work on motion?
John C. Dvorak: Yes, it’s a motion detector. It’s not like those finders you attach to items. If you set it up in a drawer and someone opens it, you’ll receive a notification that the drawer has been accessed.
Adam Curry: Does it require a Wi-Fi connection?
John C. Dvorak: I believe so, yes.
Adam Curry: Sounds like a potential attack vector to me.
John C. Dvorak: True, it could be vulnerable. If someone knows it’s there, they might find a way to disable it. These types of products do have a somewhat spy-like quality to them.
