Comment on Wi-Fi jamming to knock out cameras suspected in nine Minnesota burglaries -- smart security systems vulnerable as tech becomes cheaper and easier to acquire

  If you are in the middle of a frame-off gut of a home, as I currently am, much of this is trivial to implement.

  A notoriously low-effort endeavor in itself.

  “It’s doable with a minimum of effort as long as you have your house gutted down to the foundations” isn’t exactly the shining defense of “a minimum of effort” that I expected to read

    Go in your attic for 20 minutes. Throw some Ethernet around. You don’t even have to plug all of it in lol

      I had to buy almost $500 of mdf to get around my attic well enough to pull cable for backhaul. It’s not as easy as you make it sound in a lot of cases.

        You only need 2 pieces and some creativity.

      Not all attics are that accessible. Mine is basically an above-house crawlspace full of insulation such that you need a mask.

        It’s 2024, do you not have a mask
