Disrupting investor infomercials isn't going to get the attention of most of the bad actors that I mentioned. Disrupting a highly public event on the other hand will Expand Fine, you're right. It's much too difficult and the risk of compromise is much too great. The draft is postponed until everyone can drive to a common, secret, underground location where they can be sure nobody will see their proprietary information. The broadcast is going to be on a delay like it always is. If somebody jacks the teleconference they will just shut it down. That's all. No big deal. Nobody will get the opportunity to do anything outlandish. You stop the process and continue it later or whenever you feel like. Nobody will die if a CB from Texas A&I doesn't get drafted until next Tuesday. Will it be annoying? Yes. Will it be disruptive? Yes. Is any of that reason to not do it? No. 1

No. Expand they're not going to hijack the broadcast. more likely they'll penetrate the internal network and start encrypting the draft board, databases, player files, etc then demand a kings ransom of bitcoins to unlock it Or they'll DDoS the league or individual teams to prevent picks from being made Edited April 22, 2020 by /dev/null 1

Expand Does he realize you can have more than one thing open on a screen, or more than one persons face on each screen in webex? 2 computers, tablet, land line. 3 monitors tops - 4 just gets too busy for me and you end up just stashing something like email or teams messaging. One for webex, one for email, and one for my actual draft info. But i'd have other stuff behind the webex and email because... they don't need to be open all the time. They have notifications indicating that you have an email or that someone's sharing screen in webex, etc. Cell phone for conference calls/trades, and a landline there simply to call in picks if the app fails. I'd probably want the biggest TV in my house set up with my big board - ideally a shared "living" file. If i could screen mirror to like a surface pro that would be ideal since touch screen would be good for that type of thing. Nice thing is Buffalo gets a test run since they have no picks on day 1. Also, did they have app developers create a like - official draft application? Does anyone know?

LabattBlue Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 The only video that is really needed is of Goodell or whomever is announcing the picks, and the talking heads covering the draft. I highly doubt either of these are being done over residential WiFi.
