VIDEO: Guy hacks Times Square with iPhone transmitter

Will Brinson

The iPhone can do lots of things including, apparently, hacking all the screens in Times Square.

If, at least, we’re willing to believe what happens in the following video where a man uses a transmitter attached to his phone and a matching transmitter in his hand to take over a slew of screens in Times Square.

There seems like a really good chance this is some kind of PhotoShop work (after all, it wouldn’t be that hard to edit the screen’s picture I don’t think). But then again, maybe the technology is real — when I first realized what was happened, I freaked out because I was thinking that this could end the world. Then I realized it doesn’t do that much different than something any high-powered terrorist can already handle.
