Protect Your Satellite Dish Connection

It seems that satellite dish connectivity is not as secure as we were imagining. A certain Adam Laurie from the UK has managed to built a home made device that can intercept everything a dish uses to communicate.

At a security conference in Washington D.C. he explained how he has been able to use a standard size dish to intercept all sorts of communication, especially the kind of communication that’s supposed to be secure. Besides TV feeds he intercepted Internet traffic including emails, banking and credit card information and probably a lot more. What do you think? Still trust your satellite Internet connection?
