Has anyone actually seen that "study" from Portsmouth University?

I tried to google it but all I get is useless soundbites and fear-mongering, all over the mainstream media, with everyone linking back to Wired.com.

No one links to the actual study or to any evidence to support the claim.

Shame on you Wired.

The statistic comes from a talk at this year's 31C3 In Germany and was delivered by a professor from the University of Portsmouth -- Dr. Gareth Owen.

His personal site: https://ghowen.me/other.html

And a direct link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZdeRmlj8Gw

I'd imagine he'll publish a full write-up soon but the talk was only a few weeks ago so il not surprised it's not out yet.
