We are really looking at a way that you could possibly brute force your way into any fixed code garage or gate using a device like the IME.

It's a toy from Mattel.

I don't think they make it anymore.

But some hackers out there found that it actually has a pretty cool chip inside called the CC1110.

It's a microcontroller with a transceiver.

And the transceiver is really cool because it actually transmits and receives on a really wide range of frequencies, down to around 200 megahertz, up to like 950 megahertz.

So you can talk to a lot of things, including garages, cars, power meters, alarm systems, all sorts of things are in those bands.

And there's actually some contacts underneath a battery in the back which allows you to flash the board, erase it, and install your own software on this device.

So you can program in the De Bruyn sequence and then use this device to play those bits at the frequency you want to play and basically open any garage door or gate you like.

There is this idea that there could be no subscription.

The actual camera could have been disabled.

And Google is still able to generate these really extraordinary, chilling images.

It ultimately could be what cracks this case.

We got another letter today from this person, an email saying, I know where her body is and who the kidnapper is.

Give us give me half a Bitcoin and I'll tell you.

And this person has been really persistent, knowing that if it's a scam, it's a federal crime.

Right.

But they also made the point that they wanted to make it clear that they have nothing to do with it.

Right.

They've been out of the country, but who knows?
