There is plenty of support for unsecure media, like AC power line, low power RF (49 MHz FCC Part 15), infrared, ultrasonic, etc. This could lend a whole new meaning to "hacking a building"... (or a 747? Imagine going into a bathroom, plugging into the light switch, and reprogramming the whole plane? Cybertech hijackers?) -- There is no right more fundamental than self-defense.
