14 BANNED GADGETS YOU STILL CAN BUY ON AMAZON

Yep I agree but if you get a lock make sure it gets tested first if a quick raking can open it then it's not a good decent lock at all. Even if they're super expensive locks. The lock picking lawyer taught me that or at least watching his videos

Just as a quick note... for the laser, laser goggles aren't a recommendation, they are a must! Even just the reflection off of a surface can permanently damage your eyes.

Love that term " military grade ". Mass produced by the lowest bidder.....

[@OGBlackBridge]

It's also the lowest bidder that signs a contract to mass produce it exactly how the government wants it. I mean, I don't see Lockheed making trash aircraft out of spare Chinese parts from a wholesaler. I've also never seen anyone anywhere take the highest bidder for anything. Being in government work for 10 years I have heard this joke a million times, but if anything the government usually overpays for what's already an overpriced company or brand. Unless you're talking about skilcraft pens and staples, we generally use quality companies to make quality stuff. If anything we wind up wasting money on really awesome stuff that is absolutely unnecessary for absolutely no reason than to spend the rest of the fiscal years money so that you can carry that budget over to the next year.

[@smgdfcmfah]

@@ishid_anfarded_king It usually is a gimmick and a lie, but what does "work" mean? The military standards for things tend to be much higher requirements than civilian items - and also quite different.

If you're taking your 4X4 to pick up the kids, the civilian model is superior, but if you're going to do some serious off roading then the "military grade" is likely the better way to go (assuming it's available for sale and not just, as you say, a sales gimmick).

Only the plate flippers, dash lights, and radio jammers could actually be considered contraband. But even then, it's only illegal if you use them for the obvious purposes. The plate flippers can go on the front in States where no front plates are required, to switch between two different decorative plates. The radio jammers could be used as RF/microwave noise generators for radio design. The dash lights can be used for any colors except red, white, and blue (ironically), I believe, and any colors can be used when far enough away from the public to prevent confusion.

I will say though, I did like their initial ambition and goal, plus their assembly for only $9, even if there was plenty of initial issues like manufacturing, cheap parts, and bugs back then. Now that they went under and the prices of an inventory company are asking reach $30+ it would be silly to buy it for new prototyping, and you'd only buy one for replacement of an existing board or your lazy.

Actually, the card skimmer WOULD work with bank cards in the US. Europe uses proper chip-and-PIN, in which the card's data cannot be read unless the reader sends the PIN to the card (which is entered on the reader by the user). The US implementation is pure theatre, it doesn't actually require the PIN, which is why you can use NFC on a card to pay for something cheap (varies, but usually anything under 10 USD, sometimes under 20) and not be prompted for PIN or a signature, yet the transaction goes through. The PIN/signature is purely for the store's security, in case you try to do a charge-back.

[@ThePandafriend]

You can also unlock that in Europe, but it still doesn't allow infinite charges and is blocked after a certain amount. It's pretty insane that they use RFID chips for security applications. Those things are identification tools, not security devices.

[@sporkwitch]

@@ThePandafriend my understanding of the formal European standard was that it was an interrogatory process, requiring the reader to send the PIN to get the other device to respond with the requested info. Such a system is sufficiently secure, provided it has a reasonable lockout. For example, yubikey will refuse any further PIN entry attempts after three consecutive failures, and wipe itself after 3 consecutive PUK entry failures; unless someone got really lucky or your choice of pin or PUK sucked, this is sufficiently secure for nearly any security application. Been a bit since I went over the current formal stuff from CISA and DISA, but it should also meet requirements for NIPR use as well.

[@sporkwitch]

@@minniebeth disappointing and baffling if so. Why would they lower the standard to something that's not secure at all? More likely I was mistaken about Europe ever having done proper chip and PIN, and instead it's always been theatre, with the chip being the same as the magstripe and totally nonsecure. It's trivial to do right, I don't understand why they don't. My yubikey does it right, and it's literally the same technology.

@@drshoe9754 I didn’t say anything about dodging tolls. Let’s try to stay on topic here. Where is there a law “intent to obscure plate” written?

@@heatshield You know there's things called search engines right? Just type "intent to obscure plate" and have a gander.

I'm bored and this is a clickbaity video so: 1. USB Killer - Not illegal or "banned". 2. RFID/NFC Skimmer - You aren't talking about a skimmer, you are describing a normal RFID reader. The reader also does not have that range you mentioned. It depends on the antenna. Red teaming companies tend to use RFID readers that have an antenna as big as the backpack so they can capture access keys from a distance, but even with such massive antennas, the range isn't impressive at all. This is also not illegal, as 99% of the time RFID and NFC readers aren't used maliciously. 3. WiPhone - Not sure why the WiPhone would be deemed "banned". It's just a phone that can be tinkered with. Nothing special, nothing illegal. 4. Multipick Kronos - Not illegal. Thieves don't lockpick, that's too risky, and requires too much skill for the average thief. Thieves go for windows and weak points of entry. This is where my favorite saying fits in, security is only as strong as the weakest link, if you have an omega secure door with a 3 point lock, bullet resistant, high security locks, etc etc, all that security doesn't matter if next to the door is the same single layer glass window from when it was built. Back to the point, this tool is not illegal and probably used by locksmiths. 5. Flipper Zero - Not illegal nor banned, I also would advise against buying it from Amazon, as the price there is ridiculously high and if you click the brand "FLIPPER" it links to a completely different brand. Very sketch. Back to the original purpose of the tool, it is simply a hacker's swiss army knife, and I don't say hacker like the black hat hacker wearing a black hoodie like you would see in the movies. This tool is probably designed with red teaming in mind (the job where you get paid by a company to test their physical security) or just as a tinkerer's best friend. Little funfact for those who care, I'm waiting for mine to arrive :3. 6. GSM Jammer - FINALLY something illegal, unfortunately it still does not follow the criteria stated in the title, as NO GSM jammers are sold on Amazon. Back to the gadget itself, GSM jammers are HIGHLY illegal, and ISP companies (as well as your local communications agency, OFCOM in the UK and Switzerland, or FCC in the US for example) WILL know when you are using this and 99% of the time you will probably get a knock on the door if you use it often. 7. DSTIKE Deauther Watch - Not illegal. This tool is marketed to pentesters (probably). 8. Spy Glasses - Not illegal, tho I must mention, I don't see the point to these specs when it's so clear they have a camera, like, it's really badly hidden. 9. Lawmate - See #9. 10. SWNN High-Power Blue Pointer - Kinda illegal, it's hard to say, I'm not really law savvy, in the US these lasers are legal as long as they comply with FDA/CDRH laser product requirements for labels, but don't quote me on that, I am Swiss, not American! 11. Remote control license plate hiding thing - Yeah it's pretty much illegal no matter where you live. 12. Remote control license plate flipper - See #12. 13. Emergency lights - Illegal depending on the colors and the country. 14. PocketChip - dunno why it's even here.

Why would the RedKey file eraser be banned? Is absence of data considered evidence of destroyed evidence? That sounds like something you'd see in a satire of a police state. Or is it because it can be used for malicious purposes, by destroying data of computers you don't own?

[@GrimeSpreeStudios]

probally both but also pedophiles and dark net drug dealers can erase any evidence

[@Plutonia001]

@@GrimeSpreeStudios Businesses and private individuals need to be able to erase personal or business-related data from hardware when they upgrade and sell their older stuff. Making it mandatory to retain all of that data would expose people and businesses to malicious activity in a way that's completely disproportionate to the benefit of law enforcement being able to put perverts and non-violent controlled substance offenders into jail. It's trivially easy to recover "deleted" files from for example the temp file hard drive of a photo copier. All you need is a basic distribution of Linux. There have been cases where companies have been blackmailed using sensitive data that a buyer of their former copy machines extracted from the hardware. Legally preventing the destruction of that kind of data just so you'd have an easier time putting ganja-grower Greg behind bars is like treating a migraine with a head amputation.

$250 is a great price for that electric lockpick. But better is $10. A couple years ago, I saw a YT vid on how to make one with a $10 electric toothbrush and I thought pffft, no effing way. Of course, I tried it myself out of geek curiosity. Well, in the past year, I have used it to help two of my neighbors back into their own apartments after they locked themselves out. It's easy as it looks. The toothbrush doesn't oscillate at as high a frequency so it can take a while longer (up to a minute or so), but it eventually works. (You want one with a metal shaft that runs up the neck and you can't tell by looking, so take a small magnet with you to the store to the toothbrush aisle and see if it attracts to the neck of the toothbrush. You'll eventually find an electric toothbrush with a steel shaft in it. That's the one you want.)

The usb drive wiper is very easy to make with any cheap usb flash stick, a command line wipe utility, and a command line script that activates the program after the drive's been inserted. That's just one of the reasons you want to turn off any automatic open/start behaviour for sticks and external drives. The bigger issue are viruses that spread that way.

Honestly...a collection of existing (and cheap) technologies re-packaged and sold by "startups" at ridiculous prices, targetting less knowledgeable consumers (which is a fair call I guess, from commercial point of view).

As someone who's into lockpicking, that $200+ lockpicking device is so pointless, first of all its a jiggler, so it's not as effective as single pin picking as it hits all the pins at the same time increasing the chances of over setting or falling into false sets on security pins, secondly they make jigglers for like $50 but they arent automatic you squeeze a trigger and it flicks the tip, which actually gives you more control and you don't have to worry about the battery dying on you.

My AT-8s have been amazing. Only needed to be re-foamed once so far. Using an early 2000s Pioneer receiver with it and they get too loud to listen to at around -30dB, although that's obviously the amplifier's doing.

The red/blue light devices used by other than authorized persons can get you into a whopping amount of trouble, same with monkeying with registration tags visibility and using wrong tags.

NFC devices that your phone can pick up have been around for years, I had a routine when I touched my custom tag in the car do specific things, then I had another one set up for home, the devices that store a number recognizable by NFC vary from stickers, ink pens and keychains... there is no unimaginable thing.

[@lr134]

You could consider getting an "old" used Samsung Galaxy S5. Super durable, Wifi, Bluetooth, Infrared (yes, really!), NFC, high resolution touchscreen, good battery, microphone, camera, etc. all out of the box compared to rather low spec "tinkerer devices" like this or Raspberry Pi. It's a breeze to root and flash open systems like LineageOS (probably stick to an older version, since permissions/security on newer Androids (10 +, I think) are getting increasingly restrictive). With chroot you can run a standard Linux like Debian/Ubuntu or even Kali Linux ontop of that without sacrificing performance. Hardware hacking is not really an option of course but with a cheap adapter you can hook up USB devices (drivers may be limited though). In the end, it depends on how much "openness" or easy low level access you need.
