Interview With MIT Subway Hacker Zack Anderson 113
longacre writes "In his most extensive interview since the DefCon controversy emerged, MIT subway hacker Zack Anderson talks with Popular Mechanics about what's wrong with the Charlie Card, what happened at DefCon, and what it's like to tango with the FBI and the MBTA. The interview comes on the heels of Tuesday's court ruling denying motions by the MBTA to issue a preliminary injunction aimed at keeping the students quiet for a further five months."

What it's like to tango with the MBTA (Score:5, Funny)
Having lived in Boston for five years, I don't need to RTFA to know what that was like.
-They arrived at court 45 minutes late without apologizing to the judge
-During oral arguments, the MBTA's attorney paused several times, each time for 5-10 minutes, for no apparent reason
-MBTA officials wore blazers acquired off the rack for $9,000 apiece; no immediate plans to purchase pants
-Despite earning one of the highest wages in the industry, the attorney was surly and lazy
And, after the judge denied the MBTA's request for an injunction against the hacker, GM Dan Grabauskas issued a press release trumping the agency's legal victory.

They kindly request the sheeple to use dollar bills, and/or money coins. It's amazing technology.
