HDMI that protects from viruses

Picture - Is There Anyone Stupid Enough to Believe That This Cable Has Anti-Virus Protection?

This "Xbox 360 Elite HDMI cable" should be just like any other HDMI cable in the planet, right? Wrong! According to the box, it's a "100% Mylar" double shield 1.3c grade cable with anti-virus protection to reduce virus noises and to obtain perfect image transmission."

Yes people believe it. Just like people believe Monster cable transmits better than a $3.00 cable because it's, what do thy say? Gold plated? hahahaha

100% mylar. No copper? Then it's not 100% mylar, is it?

And actually, if you want to stretch the truth, it kind is virus protection. v1.3 cables are video only, where v1.4 cables have Ethernet channels. So the 1.3 spec can't carry data other than the video, so is therefore a kind of virus protection.


Yeah, I'm bored...
