(in German. Use Google Translate).

Kinda looks like their anti-virus program found a trojan horse delivered with the system. From the display, it appears to be the Google Play Store and the Opera web browser. However, this could also be a false positive for their anti-virus Android program. Confirmation with another anti-virus program would be nice.

It should surely be possible to use this to one's advantage.

Buy up some worthless low-volume stock. Then start having conversations, and exchanging emails, suggesting that the company has made an, as yet undisclosed, major advance, that will make its stock very valuable.

Sell the stock at a grossly inflated price.

I believe Twitter is where you play that game. [Carl Icahn for example)

I like that test chamber. I appears as if it was built to handle a lithium ion battery fire.

Legality is an issue if you're publishing stuff as part of a pump-and-dump.

I would prefer to benefit in such a way that I could still look myself in the mirror, and not have to worry about the authorities showing up.

Wimp. What you want is a genuine Agilent cell phone test chamber that looks like it could handle a small bomb explosion. Scroll down for photos.

Mine is a cardboard box covered with aluminum foil. There are feed through coax connectors caps poked through the cardboard as needed. Assembly requires a roll of aluminum duct tape. If I suspect I'm having internal reflection problems, I pour in some shredded black carbon foam. I previously used a similar wooden box, with the added luxury of a wire mesh viewing window, and an access door for punching buttons.

The real thing:

Why G-Data needs an RF test enclosure for malware testing will remain a mystery.
