Iraq, Afghan Militants Hacked Into US Drone Feeds
-------------------------------------------------

used internet software to hack into live video feeds of US drones. The
intercepts could have helped militants evade drone attacks. Pentagon
officials said they’ve long known unencrypted feeds were vulnerable for
hacking, but didn’t think militants would take advantage.
