AT&T Offers $250k Reward To Find the California Fiber-Optic Ripper
An anonymous reader writes: AT&T have offered a $250,000 reward to anyone providing information leading to the arrest and conviction of what appears to be a serial disruptor of fiber-optic connections in California. The latest incident has taken place in Livermore in the San Francisco Bay Area, where an individual thought by the FBI to possess expert knowledge and specialist tools severed a critical AT&T cable, gaining access to the enclosure via a manhole. The attack precedes 11 previous ones in California in the preceding twelve months.
Did anyone talk to the kid who got arrested for bringing a digital clock/suitcase nuke into a Texas school? I mean, clearly he's a troublemaker and has the extremely advanced technical skills to be able to access a manhole Mission Impossible-style and sever fiber-optic cables with his mind.
I'm not saying, I'm just saying, you know?
You are welcome on my lawn.
would up vote but no karma....
