I've noticed that whenever I plug anything into the bottom slot on my iPod, or power up, or power down anything already plugged in there, the iPod turns itself on without my telling it to... Even when the safety switch is on.
I've also noticed that I can look into the iPod's drive just like any other
external USB drive from my computer.
I also noticed an FCC sticker on the radio adaptor for my iPod, which says it cannot cause interference, must accept interference, etc.
Since the radio adaptor is designed to transmit radio waves to my car radio, it must contain a small antenna. Due to the requirements of the FCC, and antenna manufacture in general, it should be possible to force this transmitting antenna to function like a reciever.
A sufficiently powerful signal should then be capable of providing enough power to the radio adaptor that the iPod would turn on. A proper signal might then be modulated to deliver a coputer virus to the ipod, which would cause it, rather than just playing the music, to instead transmit back the MP3 or AVI files on the device.
Music piracy is now able to hijack the vessels on which we play our music. Yo Ho, Yo Ho!

I can't tell if you're being serious or not, but your logic is bad. |

Antennas themselves are symmetrical - a transmitting antenna can also receive a signal - but the circuitry that's connected to them is totally different between a transmitter and a receiver. A transmitting circuit is incapable of receiving a signal. |

As it stands, i can see that's true, but i'm also aware that the sound from the local analogue TV station is audible on the more primitive landline telephone in this house, and i would imagine, though i may be wrong, that it would be possible to switch the antenna between a receiving and a transmitting circuit, so surely this is possible with modification. |
