ThunderLeak: Spying Through Power Patterns

That single cable connecting your laptop can reveal your secrets. Researchers built

an attack called ThunderLeak that spies on you just by listening to the electricity

in your Thunderbolt cable. They found that different activities, like visiting YouTube

or typing a password, create unique power patterns. By placing a cheap sensor inside a

docking station, an AI could identify which website you're on with over 92% accuracy.

Even crazier, it detected 100% of keystrokes, figuring out the exact timing of

what you type. So, a compromised accessory could be watching your every move

without ever hacking your software.
