Not even god knows what's on some of those keyboards I bet
Clearly the laptop has a fingerprint sensor in the touchpad so Mr H4ck3r needs fingerless gloves to access his 192 bit AES encrypted password store.
Hack the planet!!
And five posts down is an actual article using that photo. LOL.
News outlets can't resist the awesome power of a genuine, very real tech pic!
Keyboards are gross, gloves kinda make sense. Especially of its not your keyboard.
Ye, no touching the laptop with your burger making gloves, this is a hygienic gastropub!
Never gone PINK MODE when pentesting?
I'd have a hard time hacking anything with a big triangle between me and half the keyboard. Hackers hate this one weird trick.
Consider: horny people with poor senses of appropriate behaviour are some of the easiest to own.
Mr hackerman can be considered to be on site at some sort of erotic club (pink lighting) gaining physical access to someone's laptop while they're distracted.
As you see the gloves aren't just explainable but necessary.
