They had a talk space yesterday night at Chaos Communication Congress. These three guys are modern heroes.

There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
This is very dystopian, having to hack a product because they dared to not use the official company workshop.
It is frightening because a company overstepped what is the free will of a public agency in doing what they want with their own property. I know this is much more already a reality in the US, but imagine if monopolistic companies alone could dictate to countries how laws should and shouldn’t be.
Also found this from someone involved in the hack: https://social.hackerspace.pl/@q3k/111528162462505087
This bit is pretty interesting:
One version of the controller actually contained GPS coordinates to contain the behaviour to third party workshops.
Yes, he explains not only this but also other lock mechanisms in the talk.
For example, one based on datetime. It’s quite crazy.
International compressor failure day

Thanks for the link, I was waiting for that talk.

Prison
Fines mean only to normalise and integrate this behaviours
Fines is a cost of business
Fuck fines
More than a fine, I would hope that whoever mandated such locks to be installed is arrested. I am sure some criminal charges can be found.

Why would you? It’s completely unenforceable in an anonymous forum. Maybe it’s just for “news” outlets?
I seriously lol’d when he said “you might know me from such shitposts as getting Wayland to work on ipod nano”
