NORAD Abuse
We’ve been channel-flipping through the news networks this evening. I have seen several reports of “Santa Claus tracking” through a variety of techniques, including weather radar, Bluetooth telephones, Blackberry updates, and even NORAD itself.
Um, to whom exactly are these reports being aimed? Anyone young enough to believe in Santa Claus (i.e., the under-nine crowd) wouldn’t know the difference between NORAD and North Pole, and “Blackberry” is that beeping thing that takes up all of Daddy’s free time. If these little news snippets aren’t for the kids, then they must be aimed at us adults. Speaking as one of the non-believers in Santa Claus, may I be the first to say that the “tracking Santa” schtick is old and busted?
However, if you told me you were tracking old Saint Nick by hacking into the unsecured wireless network hub onboard his sleigh, you would have my undivided attention.
