Re: Side-channel timing attacks on Humans

Technically you are incorrect - the flash card test detects racism by showing people of different ethnicities. There is only one human race, and racism is believing this to be incorrect.

But yes, there are a lot of side channel attacks on people. One used to be to catch suspected deserters representing themselves as civilians by having an NCO shout a word of command in their ear unexpectedly.
