    DVD Jon's at it again. He obviously likes being in court... ;) this from News.com:

    The Norwegian hacker famous for cracking DVD encryption says he has cracked Apple AirPort Express.

    Jon Lech Johansen has revealed the public key that Apple AirPort Express, a wireless networking protocol, uses to encrypt music sent between iTunes and a wireless base station.

    AirPort Express was released in June 2004 as a small wireless bridge from a personal computer to a stereo. Details of the AirPort Express codes were also published on Johansen's weblog, which is called So Sue Me.

    Heh, go Jon. :thumb:

    I wonder if he's got a donation page somewhere to help raise funds for his court appearances, I'd give him a coupla quid for his hard work breaking evil DRM software.
