Hacking USBs 🔥 and other hardware with MG (Creator of Hak5 OMG cable)

Learning how to hack hardware with MG – the creator of the OMG cable. This isn’t easy – especially when you scale production – but very interesting.

Disclosure: This video is NOT sponsored by Hak5. I just like this stuff 🙂 MG did however send me one OMG cable for testing, but I have purchased the rest of the products myself. Please note that if you buy Hak5 products using the link below I will get an affiliate fee.
