I'm beginning to wonder if someone already has thought about this and executed it (pun not intended). I mean, the article even said that the jolt in the pacemaker would be called a malfunction. Who's to say that this hasn't already been done?

I'm quite surprised that this sort of thing isn't more widely known. All devices use the same basic protocol structure so if it gets connected to the internet or accepts wireless signals, someone can get into it. The only way to completely secure a device is to leave it offline, then you need physical access to it.
