Is anyone actually surprised by this?

    Not exactly. Timing between key presses can be used to identify people.

      I am literally so paranoid I regularly vary my keysteoke rhythms and explore polyrhytmic techniques to create variations. Not even joking.

      lol no. only the sounds of the keys can identify the keyboard’s model

        The goal is not to identify keyboard model. The goal is to identify person. And people tend to have something called habbits.

          the chance of this is almost zero. if you are a dangerous cybercriminal, they will track your device down by a networking solution, wait until you leave it unattended and install a hardware-based spy device and capture evidence. No fbi agent will fuck around with keyboard sounds or movie bs like that

            Ok, I see you are intentionally going in circles.
