This video I discovered today on youtube shows two hackers controlling the lighting system of a building to play space invaders highlights a new phase of cyber crimes.

In the past, we have been used to have downloaded a virus as part of some free software but this time it's different, attackers already targeted application specific systems such as the one in the video.

This might be true or not but it has the great possibility to be done in real life specially nowadays where almost all gadgets and systems has already a built in TCPIP stack for communication.
