The claims for their Jack PC are that they are completely theft-proof, virus-proof, and data-secured. I'm sure that at the moment they could say that but couldn't hackers discover a way to compromise it should they put their minds to it? They've managed to compromise everything eventually.
I would say its a safe bet that yes, eventually people will find a way around that. But right now it stands.
Virus wise yes it is safe because the client doesn't hold any data-the risk would be someone managing to put a virus into the data being stored on the server. Theft proof is fairly relative too because I'm sure some people would stop at nothing to get a device away.
I would just think that if anything did get compromised, the company could be held liable to a degree because they made such a broad promise. Most companies are not so eager to make promises that they may not be able to keep.
You know you're right, and that's actually a very reassuring thought. If they were not prepared to stand by their products then they could not and would not make claims like that.
You know, Arthur, I hadn't thought of it in that light but that makes sense. I may have to look further into their products because I believe that you bring up a very good point.
This is true I guess. They know that if they make grand claims that people will call them on them if things go wrong. So they have to trust the stuff themselves-a rather wonderful recommendation I think.
It's safe at the moment, but bear in mind that nobody would want to compromise a thin client, at least not now. So they're betting on that too. Other than that, of course, all systems are hackable, no doubts about it.
I wonder how long it will be before they are hacked? It seems like the hackers are much further ahead in technology than the actual companies themselves.
