I found this funny article over at Tom's Hardware.

USB is Satan; Bluetooth is Jesus Christ
[SIZE="1"]5:20 PM - November 18, 2010 - By Kevin Parrish - Source : Tom's Guide US[/SIZE]

One group in Brazil is banning followers from using USB devices because based on the symbol design.

Is the USB symbol really the mark of the devil? One group in Brazil thinks so, claiming that the circle, triangle and square connected to an even larger circle diagram resembles a trident used to torture souls down south.

Let's be honest here: the USB symbol does have some resemblance to a trident, featuring three prongs and at least one sharp tip. We're not talking about the current logo consisting of the plug and "Certified USB" label, but rather the symbol clearly marked on the actual connectors. Do a search on the internet, and it's referenced as the USB "trident" symbol.

While it's origin was hard to locate, one suggestion is that the artist based the layout on Neptune's Trident. The three shapes represent three unique devices that can connect to one central destination without the need to reboot--unlike the old-school serial and parallel ports. Could it have been designed using a less sinister layout? Perhaps.

As for the Brazilian group claiming the symbol represents Satan, they're forbidding followers from using any type of USB-dependent device including flash drives, mice and keyboards. According to a report from the Guardian, peripherals must use "common connections." The use of any type of USB device is deemed as worshiping the devil.

On a positive note, the group approves the use of Bluetooth because Jesus Christ had blue eyes.

It looks like a trident, alright.

But only the middle one has an arrow tip on it. The two outer ones have normal circuit termination....

basta whenever you insert your USB, make a sign of the cross or whisper a prayer, and it might be ok

How did they know that Christ's eyes are blue?

Are they a religious group?



Pity the cult followers.

Daming kalokohan. That's all crap!

Parang noon, yung logo raw ng SM, symbolizes the devil. Kasi yung S daw..... parang buntot ng devil at yung M naman, parang sungay ng devil din.......

How did they know that Christ's eyes are blue?

Indeed... I was wondering the same thing.

As I've never seen a blue-eyed pure-blooded Jew.

What morons... are they not aware that the three-pronged symbol represents the Holy Trinity, and the B symbol for Bluetooth is actually Madonna's boobs?

Invention na ng catholic church yan. To give Jesus a more western look.

holy crap don't mind me it's just a pigment of my imagination being too far from home.

If you look on something long and hard enough it will show you whatever you like to see.

Tanga naman ng mga Brazilians na to. Bluetooth was named for a theiving and murdering Pirate.
