Ok I know of the possible damage to the network these modded VM boxes can do but its hardly the crime of the century is it? Ok the £1 is a joke also and I think as I said CS would have been a better sentence than a suspended jail term

But the fact is they didn't go without. They purchased a dodgy smart card with the express intention of defrauding VM out of money by availing of a service without paying for it.

It has not been cracked, This is a way round the new encryption and they are traceable through what they are doing and this is why they are getting caught more now:confused:

I think that this is correct and maybe one of the VM staff members can sure this claim up:confused:

I think these convictions relate to pre Nagra 3 days. I think the only dishonest way now is card sharing which, as you rightly say, is easier to trace. It's also riskier for the thieves to fork out their dodgey cash as servers can be pulled down at anytime. :D

Hail Nagra 3

And maybe if ferraris weren't so expensive there wouldn't be so many people driving skodas.
