G'day Norm,
It's interesting how it's all changed Norm.
I remember in the mid nineties Swinburne in Hawthorn had 3D printers and in 2009 Windows 7 was new.
In 2013 anyone could download the plans for a 3D printed gun.
Pre 2009 criminals would clone all id numbers on stolen vehicles and sell the vehicle and the owner wouldn't
find out that they had a stolen vehicle until the next registration payment.There would be 2 cars on the road
with the same numbers and plates.
Also remember seeing car plates printed on paper and put behind a perspex number plate holder.
20 years ago i remember a company started making novelty plates and would sell them at swap meets, there
has always been someone who can make number plates.
I had people wanting to pay by check for second hand goods back in the nineties instead of cash ,I would
never take a check as you never knew if it would clear ,just like when people wanted to transfer money to
buy an item , I wouldn't be giving them or sending the item until the money had cleared.

easily they were circumvented, then they bring out secure boot processors to fix the problem but they can still be
exploited.
