The word is raped.
The diminishing returns!
How do you hack one of these?
Password is usually “DOTS” by default and there’s a control panel on the side/back.
Modern FED and DOT General standard specifications state that the PW must be changed to prevent exactly this. Good luck finding one that’s not locked out.
And you’re supposed to get a yearly physical, not break the speed limit, have unique passwords, file your taxes on time, regularly test your smoke alarms, perform preventative maintenance on your home and vehicle, get 8 hours of sleep a day, drink several glasses of water, quit putting off seeing a doc for that weird pain in your chest that is ‘just a thing sometimes’, be frugal to be able to retire comfortably at a reasonable age…
The factory reset procedure on them is trivial iirc.
Having worked with people before, I’m sure the chances of finding one still with the default password is quite high
Similarly, I’m sure the chances of finding one where the new password is written on a post it stuck to the inside of the access door are also pretty high.
Fact check : TRUE
Thanks
High visibility reflective vest recommended. Bonus points for clipboard and white truck.
white truck
Racist!
Specifically an f-150, the more basic the better.
I’m not sure I want to spend f-150 money to hack a sign (or have an f-150), but I do appreciate the effort
A white F-150 work truck with hiviz stickers or magnets is a master key to places you didn’t know cars were allowed. Hop out with a vest, a hard hat, a clipboard and a face that says “I don’t want to be here” and police will ask if they’re allowed to be where you are.
You don’t buy it, just steal it.
Work smarter, not harder.
Most of the time they don’t change from the default passwords.
Or there isn’t even a password at all, and security is entirely provided by a locked cover over the control panel … usually a lock with a standard, easy-to-buy-online key.
You buy your bolt-cutters online, too? It’s such a useful key.
You probably don’t even have to go that far. You can rake-pick most consumer locks in a handful of seconds and with zero talent required. I theoretically know how to pick locks in the traditional “little click from pin 1, pin 2 is set, pin 3 is loose” kind of way but in reality I never have to on any consumer grade lock. Just tension it with a little screwdriver and fuck it at random with a bent paperclip and you’ll probably get it open. I’d be immensely surprised if these things are secured with anything more than a dinky 4 or if we’re feeling especially generous 5 pin through-hole cam lock.
How do you interact with it? I know nothing about these systems
Edit: control panel on the back
gotta hack a Gibson
The regime is petty enough that the FBI would track this guy down and jail him for this.
This regime is paranoid and delusional enough that the FBI will track you down and jail you for doing nothing at all, might as well get a sick post out of it if we’re all fucked anyway
Then someone stomps on his foot and tells him to point at Iran.
