3COM's Ergo Audrey Hacked 134
It looks like the 3COM Ergo Audrey hacking scene is finally taking off. A guy named Sowbug has hacked the 3COM Ergo Audrey to shell. He has pictures of it here(1) and here(2). Another site has opened to cover this hack, here(3). And of course the Linux Hacker messageboards are covering it quite a bit.

Maybe it's just that the name isn't that familiar, but the idea of "hacking Audrey" has a certain creepy resonance to it... thinking of the people that I know named Audrey... hmmm...

I feel the beans cast an air of suspicion over this whole thing.
Its like this guy is working on his computer but instead of drinking a Coke, he just eats a can of beans? That aint right.

Today the FBI arrested the infamous hacker
"sowbug" on a criminal complaint from 3com.
The FBI alleges that "sowbug" violated the DMCA
by reverse engineering 3com's "Audrey"
device.
A company spokesperson explained : "sowbug
violated the DMCA by bypassing our elaborate
security mechanisms to prevent unauthorized
access to the operating system. ingenuity
will not be tolerated. We intend to send a message
to the dangerous hacker community that using our
products in ways 3com never considered is totally
unacceptable."
Supporters of the DMCA are calling for the death
penalty, arguing "a mere 5 years imprisonment
is not a strong enough deterrent to free thinking
and research."
