Now e-cigarettes can give you malware (Guardian)
more at linkE-cigarettes may be better for your health than normal ones, but spare a thought for your poor computer electronic cigarettes have become the latest vector for malicious software, according to online reports.
Many e-cigarettes can be charged over USB, either with a special cable, or by plugging the cigarette itself directly into a USB port. That might be a USB port plugged into a wall socket or the port on a computer but, if so, that means that a cheap e-cigarette from an untrustworthy supplier gains physical access to a device.
