3COM's Ergo Audrey Hacked

Posted by timothy on from the nifty-tiny-cheap-pick-any-three dept.

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.

    That's a fake screenshot (photo). Seems like he has taken the picture from a shot of ItermPPC (yeah only PPC -- ) and posted it here. Slashdot should research the authencity of their articles before they post.

    Those screenshots are faked. He just created some nice looking screens and fed them into Audrey. Slashdot needs to be a little more careful before boasting about hacks. This loser's gonna have wood for the next three weeks because he made Slashdot.

      I wonder if the editors "get wood" when they post worthless/outdated/previously posted crap... It seems that they do.

  3. Linux has been hacked ! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Just in case you wonder, the Linux trademark has been "hacked" too !

    One example of how those unscrupulous slimers are getting in for the kill is www.linuxmalaysia.org

    Go to that place and see for yourself how "Linux" has been used to sell CHOCOLATE !

    This is just the beginning, folks. There'll be others using "Linux" as the bait to do whatever they want to do, and I won't be surprised if someone come out with "Linuxsex.net" or "Linux-dildo.com".

    Please help stop the abuse of Linux trademark. Please help tell others about the abuse.

    Thank you !
