prodil89 Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Police handcuffs can't restrain them. High security locks can't keep them out. Very little can thwart the lock picking and safe cracking skills of an elite group of Dutch hackers known as Toool. But far from being some shadowy criminal fraternity, The Open Organisation of Lock pickers (Toool) is nothing more sinister than a sports club that meets in a pub once a week. There is a long tradition of lock-picking among computer experts and hackers, said Jos Weyers, a senior member of the club. "Computer hackers like getting into areas of a computer that they are not supposed to, and lock-picking is really just analogue hacking - working out how a device works and opening it in a way that you are not meant to. "A closed lock is a challenge - it's a red rag to a hacker." [url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-10554538]BBC News - Hackers turn to lock picking for sport[/url] Quote
