Ethical wireless hacker is innocent
A Houston ethical hacker accused of breaking into the wireless network of a Texan court has been acquitted of all charges.
Stefan Puffer, 34, was charged in July 2002 on "two counts of unauthorized access into a protected computer system and unauthorized access of a computer system used in justice administration", the Houston Chronicle reported yesterday. It's believed to be the first case of its kind in the US.
