Topre slipped a KEYLOGGER in all Realforce Keyboards

[@Uryftw]

My man! Long time no see. Did not know you were making content for KZbin! Glad to see you here :)

[@UnrealKeyboards]

Ury! Hope all is well with you! I moved away from streaming and content creation completely, but I felt I needed to address this issue and Realforces lack of transparency for something as egregious as a hidden, persistent, non-toggleable keylogger.

IMO, this isn’t a privacy concern unless the keyboard stores the keystrokes in order. As an earlier commenter said, it’s more likely that the keyboard just stores a count of the keypresses for each key.

[@UnrealKeyboards]

as far as we know they could not only be collecting the data in order but also retrieving it. realforce has refused to answer any questions as to the specifics of this feature

very sad, built in keylogger

Well shit if you’re using the usual suspects like Windows, MacOS, Ubuntu, and you’re worried about privacy boy do I got a bridge to sell you… Heck, your phone is your personal little spy…

Dump the firmware/memory, press 1 key, and dump again and compare the binaries. Probably just increases 1 byte inside of an array that i++'s every time the key is pressed.
