Maybe I’m feeling just a little vindicated, since I almost got arrested a few times poking around Boston’s Red Line for a grad class on transit scheduling, but this is kind of cool.
According to this story, a bunch of nerds at MIT found security vulnerabilities in the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA)’s sort-of new fare card system, and were almost sued for daring to talk about it at a convention in Las Vegas.

I wonder what a bunch of Harvard kids would have done in the same situation?
