I mean, what better way to utilise your l33t 5k1lz than to 'hack' (and I use that term in the perjoritive sense often applied by modern popular media, not the respectful sense in which is has been applied to some of the greatest true hackers of our time) cable set-top boxes so you can get your daily dose of boobies and football?

I only hope that two things happen:

1) that the cable operators find a way to shaft you no-hope, service stealing, thieves, for good, and
2) that they work out who you are and take the money they've saved by not having to maintain a service to your dodgy boxes and spend it screwing you for every penny you have.

Have a nice day though

totally agree,
