Bluesniper Creator Interviewed on Gizmodo
carbolic writes "Gizmodo interviews John Hering, one of the Bluedriving crew (of which I was one: picture) and creator of the Bluesniper rifle. Get the backstory on the recent 1.08 mile cellphone Bluesnarf attack and find out his motivation for building the rifle and trying a snarf to a cellphone you can't even see."
The Linux community likes to hide behind the mantra of free and open
l
a sp
software for all and as such has the twisted mindset that all software
should be free for everyone. This should come as no surprise seeing
that the Linux community seems to take pride in stealing anything they
can get their hands on and breaking laws designed to protect IP at the
same time.
Linux users have been advocating downloading Microsoft True Type Fonts
for years mostly because their own fonts and font system in general
has been so horrific that Linux screen fonts in most stock installs
are almost unreadable. Of course they will claim that Linux fonts are
great but if that were really the case why is the internet clogged
with Linux Font DeUglification documents written by Linux users?
They even have documents that give a step by step procedure for
stealing the Microsoft fonts and installing them on Linux systems!
Notice in particular the instructions for the Tahoma font.

Next we have Linux users violating the EULA for the X-Box and
tinkering with it so that it can run Linux.
Why on earth any sane person would want to take a bitching game
machine like X-box and ruin it by installing Linux is a mystery to me.

Pay particular attention to the question about it being illegal and
how they avoid answering the question.
They are also doing the same thing with Sony Play station as well.
http://playstation2-linux.com/faq.php
None of this is going to hold up in a court of law and the Linux
people who are leading these projects are looking for some serious
trouble should Microsoft and Sony decide to pursue this matter.
Finally we have the suit filed by SCO which claims that the Linux
community at large has incorporated stolen code into it's open source
programs.
http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,936269,00.
This should come as no surprise to anyone who has followed the Linux
movement from the day Linux wrote the kernel.
The Linux community has proven themselves to be a fight to the end,
steal whatever can be stolen from big business because it is big
business that is killing Linux.
The Linux community has absolutely no respect for the property of
others and will resort to any type of clandestine tactics to steal
whatever isn't cemented down all in the good name of Linux.
So if you are thinking of betting your business on Linux software, you
had better think it over carefully, because if SCO should win, Linux
will be out of business.
And if SCO should lose, do you really think it is wise to bet your
entire business on software that is supported by a community that
promotes stealing and in fact is full of thieves?
Food for thought.
yeah.
all your bluetooth phones are belong to us.

It doesn't look cool, it looks heavy and unwieldy. The one used at Santa Monica was essentially the same thing without a stupid-ass stock grafted onto the working parts.
You ever get the feeling that some geeks have personality disorders? They have a penchant for violence and violent things. Perhaps they didn't have enough physical size to get these aggressions out while in high school?

That must be the most scary picture of a gang I have ever seen
It's never been done and more importantly "You can do it !!" (in a totally non-Waterboy style).
:)
The real question to be asked is - What next ?

Linux upped my productivity, now up yours.
Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur
The question is, if he tried to get that out of the country would he be called a terrorist for having a rifle shaped object that would interfere with the planes radar system.
When I saw this gizmo originally on Tom's Hardware Defcon 12 review (posted on a /. article), I thought in deed it was clever but more so intriguing b/c it was slapped on to a rifle handle. I can just imagine bingo-ladies calling 911 when they see a bunch of lads driving around pointing this thing aimlessly out the window trying to snag a signal, if their team name "Bluedriving crew".
No doubt a solid way to get in trouble is to make something look like a weapon and walk around public with it, or to point one of them laser pointers at Bill Clinton at a next book signing (offtopic note: notice the stiff no-ass-grab-hug in that picture he has to do now).:P
Some aim to please, I aim to tease.
This is slashdot... and you ask why someone makes a ray gun to zap mobile phones? Hell why not ask why we need our 1mb lines to reload small webpages repeatedly untill the servers melt
I like muppets.
What exactly is covered in that article that we didn't read about yesterday?
Just look at the replies, everyone is just going over the same "you'd totally get arrested" ground. There's nothing new to discuss, which begs the question, why post the story?
If you started pointing this around in public in the uk, you would be likely to be either shot or taken in for questioning relating to a firearms offence (it doesn't have to be a real firearm).
wow, these are some serious dweebs we got here. It's always amusing when a geek thinks he is cool. Geeks carrying video-game style "weapons" is even funnier.
And this makes him a geek hero?
If this device was a US government-sponsored project,can you imagine the barrage of outraged posts?
Anyone care to try this out at the upcoming RNC in NYC. Police: "I think we have a shooter here." "Take him out, now!".
Something tells me these guys are going to be in the news more often.
MMO Quests are like orgasms:
You may solo them, I prefer them in a group.
Ok.. you made a nuisance device and shaped it like a weapon. Wow, that's so incredibly special!!
Seriously, why not put all that effort into something that *might actually* be useful for people? I mean it's not like RF devices are black magic anymore, so where's the challenge, the feeling of discovery.
This sounds like something that rednecks should be doing not geeks. Overall I rate the story: "Boooo!!".
In other news today it is announced that, YOU ARE ALL COCKS.
