Siri turns 'Sirial Killer' in Holiday Horror Movie

New Rising Media: "Though Siri is at best a middling distraction on the iPhone 4S for most of us, it's nevertheless an incredible piece of technology. Advanced voice recognition, sophisticated artificial intelligence, a smattering of humorous responses... But what we didn't know is that Siri actually has a mind of its own and is on a mission to “kill the humans." Something that we find out in this hilarious spoof movie trailer, 'Siri: The Holiday Horror Movie'.

From Terminator's Skynet to HAL-9000 in Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, there's a deluge of science-fiction movies out there that play with the concept of smart computer systems being humans' eventual downfall.

Fair play to them. On the ethical hacker side of things I would use the hack as leverage against Apple to continue to support their equipment. As they just dropped support for their iPad mini2’s etc. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with them, they work perfectly fine but are now blocked from receiving security updates etc. So the consumer is forced to purchase a new product that does the exact same thing.
