    McAfee offers "World's first truly private smartphone" (**NSFW**)

    Via John MCafee:

    "The John McAfee Privacy Phone, by MGT - first prototype. World's first truly private smartphone. You gonna love it."

    Details are scarce, but:

    "MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (OTC: MGTI) is in the process of acquiring and developing a diverse portfolio of cyber security technologies. With industry pioneer John McAfee at its helm, MGT is positioned to address various cyber threats through advanced protection technologies for mobile and personal tech devices, as well as corporate networks.

    Also as part of its corporate efforts in secure technologies, MGT is growing its capacity in mining Bitcoin. Currently at 5.0 PetaHash, the Company’s facility in Washington state produces about 100 Bitcoins per month, ranking it as one of the largest U.S. based Bitcoin miners. Further, MGT is in active discussions with financial partners to grow Bitcoin output materially.

    Lastly, MGT stockholders have voted to change the corporate name of MGT to "John McAfee Global Technologies, Inc." Following a dispute over ownership and permitted usage of the name McAfee, The Company and Intel have agreed to a mediation process to avoid unnecessary legal costs."

    If it connects to any telecommunications network then it will not be private.

    If you can't win a gun fight against a lightly-trained individual during broad daylight with 88 rounds of 30-06, I'm not sure you'd be able to do it with... any other firearm.

    Ok, I've got an El Camino full of rampage here, so what's the plan?

    While I agree...

    ...if any living human has the potential to produce a legitimately secure commercial device, it's JM.

    Way out of my lane, but I had thought things like end to end encryption and other methods done by people who know their chit (and JM is the LAV of dudes who know their chit in that realm) would make for a level of security no seen in phones used today. I'll be interested to see how that goes and may grab a few shares for chit and giggles should it pop.

    It comes with a stylus that doubles as a coke straw, room in the battery compartment for a "survival" razor blade and a condom, the back is a "signal" mirror, and the other end of the stylus is a handcuff key.

    he is like Charlie Sheen with a 99.99 percentile IQ.

    If he conjures forth a strong enough, proprietary, crypto algorithm with a sufficient bit count it would, at least through unclassified channels, be a MOTHER****ER to break. Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman Ephemeral, for example.

    I want to believe in the conspiracy that there's a lab with a Quantum computer somewhere, but I'm not buying that one yet.

    The AI's working the personality type algorithims will correctly assess your perceived threat level, no matter how invalid the inputs are.
