Some good news from India this morning.
From The Inquirer:
According to Freedom to Tinker Prasad was released following an order from Magistrate D H Sharma. Sharma praised Hari and made strong comments against the police. Prasad did a great service for his country, the magistrate said.
Prasad was arrested after he showed how to hack an electronic voting machine in front of a group of academics. The problem, according to the coppers who arrested him, was not that he had hacked the machine but rather where he got it in the first place.
Makes the brain hurt to think of the logic that the police attempted to leverage in this case. Security from the “don’t look behind the curtain” school of thought.
