The article mentions the listening bug in the Great Seal in a side note, but it&#x27;s arguably an even better hack:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;The_Thing_%28listening_device%29" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;The_Thing_%28listening_device%...</a>

&quot;Keeping track of all the various software was hard enough, but keeping track of all of the variations [in the software] was a nightmare.&quot;<p>Sounds all too familiar.

The &quot;How it worked&quot; part is in &quot;Implant Characteristics&quot; section, Page 16 of the PDF and forward.

The dates associated with this document seem confusing and contradictory. I can only assume that&#x27;s intentional.<p>I&#x27;ll also not be surprised if it makes my computer self-destruct via spontaneous self-combustion after reading.
