I'm not sure if this is the same, but I read somewhere that it's incredibly easy to hack into airplane wifis and take control of the plane/at least parts of the system. Some cyber security guy did it to prove a point and went on cnn to talk about how easy it is and that we aren't doing enough to secure that connection.

I mean, if you don't have wifi, but you have five hours with nothing to do... It's probs mostly for rate limiting requests that have to be beamed down to the ground

On an airplane?

Ok if the work environment is toxic and the manager totally unsupportive ... And eventually you leave the job ... During interviews when the HR asks you why did you leave the job ?

Then what should be the answer to this question ?
