You may wonder if it is possible hack your Samsung smart TV. Wikileaks recently published a large number of CIA espionage files. These documents show a multitude of hackable gadgets, including smart TVs, that the CIA uses in its spying operations. One such hack has been identified as "Weeping Angel." This knowledge will allow you to identify if your television has been compromised and determine if it is possible to restore its factory settings.
It's possible to take control over a large number of smart TVs without actually having physical access.
A recent data dump published by Wikileaks claims that the CIA can hack Samsung smart TVs without a user's knowledge. According to the data dump the CIA may secretly transmit audio or record audio to a smart TV and insert ads without the user even knowing. This is a major breakthrough, and could potentially make millions of smart TVs vulnerable to such attacks.
Exploiting two security flaws in Web Browsers
A new proof of concept attack allows hackers to send malicious commands directly to smart TVs. The rogue signal is then broadcast to other devices nearby. The proof of concept exploit has already been demonstrated to work against two models of Samsung televisions. The attack exploits two documented security flaws in Web browsers and could also be used to target other TV models.
Using rogue DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting -- Terrestrial) signals
Hackers could hijack smart TVs with over-the–air video broadcasting signal and gain root acces, which allows them to spy and carry out DDoS attack. Oneconsult security researchers have devised a hack that exploits rogue DVB–T signals to hack smart TVs. This method works against two Samsung TV models, but is likely to work on a larger range of televisions.
Resetting a smart tv to factory settings
You can use the remote to reset a smart-TV. Navigate to the main menu, then press the "Exit” button. Hold the button down for about 10 seconds until you are able to confirm. This process deletes all user settings, and will restore the television to its factory state. Once you are done, restart the TV and it should be back online. Here are the steps. This process may require you to restart your TV once completed.
How to find a camera for a smart TV
If you have a Samsung smart TV, you can find a hidden camera by running your finger along the top edge. You can also check the camera if it has a microphone or an insert. Even though smart TVs do not come with a camera you can still find it if your take the time and look closely. If the camera is not visible, cover it with a thick piece or cardboard and retry.
FAQ
What is the main difference between a quadcopter or a helicopter?
A quadcopter can be described as a quadrotor helicopter with four rotors. It flies the same way as a traditional helicopter. It has four rotors which rotate independently. The quadcopter's quadcopter counterpart, the hexacopter, has six instead of four. Hexacopters can be more stable and maneuverable that quadcopters.

How high can you fly a drone without a license?
The FAA does not limit the height of a drone. They do require that you register your unmanned airplane system (UAS), which includes registration number, model number, weight, size and manufacturer's names, as well as other information.
Can I fly my drone indoors?
Yes, you can fly your drone indoors. There are only a few things you need to do: Make sure your home is free of obstacles and hazards. For example, you should avoid flying near windows, doors, heating vents, air conditioning units, electrical outlets, water pipes, and fireplaces.

How To
How to Repair a Damaged Motor on a Drone
First, identify the broken part of the motor to repair it. This is easiest to do by removing the propeller from its shaft. Next, remove all wires from the motor shaft and inspect the internal workings. If you spot something wrong, you can identify which part of the motor needs to be fixed.
You don't need to worry if there's no damage to your motor. However, a motor that looks like the one below will require you to replace certain components before you can fly again.
Suppose a motor has been bent up so it won't turn anymore. This means that you will need to bend the motor back into shape. For this purpose, you could use a vice grip to hold the motor and bend it back into shape. After you're done, check your motor for signs of wear.
Once you're satisfied that everything's ok, put the propeller back onto the motor shaft and reattach the wires. Now your drone is ready to fly!
