Heads up - USB ‘condom’ protects gadgets from viruses

[Anonymous]

Not sure if anyone has already posted about this device. 

"It slips onto your USB cable and provides a “protective barrier between your device and ‘juice-jacking’ hackers”, according to Xipiter, the security company behind it.

In other words, you can charge your gadgets from public computers without worrying about anyone stealing your data. Your phone could even be at risk of data theft from your own computer, if someone has hacked it and installed malware."

Not the nicest of names is it

I think I'd rather build one myself, plenty of bits I could cannibalise.

Wonder if it's 100% effective as a condom isn't.
