so now that you are away from the item being attacked, the attackers can come at it full strength and nobody is around to "fix" if need be? did you ever see that US TV commercial where the lady in airport posts online "off to Hawaii i go", and her app thingy gets a reply from a unknown person "have a nice trip" ????

so maybe a lesson learned here, security goes well beyond the machine..... not saying anything bad will happen, but you get my point.

so, have a good trip
