Here are the computer technologies that are no longer safe to use, susceptible to having your information stolen:

1. Any computer with a RISC architecture CPU that does pre-fetching (susceptible to pre-fetch cache side channel attacks).

2. Any computer with DDR3 memory chips (susceptible to bit banging attacks).

So in other words 99.99999 percent of all computers in use today can be pretty easily hacked by anyone.

Of course, if you use Facebook or Google, you’re voluntarily giving all of your personal information away for free, so carry on I guess.

JavaScript’s typeof operator should be ignored. It’s broken.

A more reliable test for data types:

Object.prototype.toString.call(data);

For example:

Object.prototype.toString.call([]); // [object Array]

Object.prototype.toString.call({}); // [object Object]

Object.prototype.toString.call(”); // [object String]

Object.prototype.toString.call(new Date()); // [object Date]

Object.prototype.toString.call(1); // [object Number]

Object.prototype.toString.call(function () {}); // [object Function]

Object.prototype.toString.call(/test/i); // [object RegExp]

Object.prototype.toString.call(true); // [object Boolean]

Object.prototype.toString.call(null); // [object Null]

Object.prototype.toString.call(); // [object Undefined]
