I was pleased to learn that Steve Wozniak hasn't lost the hacker spirit:
Wozniak: I didn't reduce chip count for manufacturing. I wanted to prove I was clever
Plus: Beware of a hotspot called 'spanky'
Quote:
During his keynote, he talked about creating a device to interfere with televisions surreptitiously and pranking the unwary. "Everything you do in life should have an element of fun," he said, later explaining how he'd recently started to use a Raspberry Pi Zero to make mischief with aircraft passengers hunting for Wi-Fi.
"I'll tune in the Raspberry Pi to the airplane's network … and then I'll have a little five-dollar Raspberry Pi Zero, I'll have it put on a second Wi-Fi of its own and name the network 'spanky' with no password. Everyone on the plane can log in… eleven people connected. So I started using it as a honeypot.
