This article tackled a theoretical problem with smartphones, in that they can be hacked using inaudible voice commands. IVC's are high frequency sounds that are manipulated to be inaudible to us (thus the DolphinAttack), while being able to control a smartphone. The article might be too complex for the average joe, but the complexity and thoroughness is great. The researchers theorized an attack, put it into effect, found two different methods of countering the attack, and verified their findings with machine learning.
