I was talking specifically about advanced courses, in which an assignment is "implement a side-channel attack using data" and you can use whatever library you like.
Am I misunderstanding, or did you just say you want this new functionality in order to implement attacks on people's computers?
This is completely off topic (the feature is irrelevant to the contents of the course). But - you are misunderstanding :) And yes I took a course in which I was expected to demonstrate attacks on people's computers using e.g. correlation power analysis. It was based on fake data but yes. They also give courses in which you learn that there's these things called man in the middle, buffer overflows and return-oriented programming! Elazar
