Your Identity Is Treason, Citizen 

This Wired article about a German security researcher who has devised a way to crash e-passport readers with an e-passport conjures up wonderful images of Computer Phreak hackers crashing Computer security with a hacked ME card - and one of the Troubleshooters being assigned that ME card. Hilarity ensues.

In other news, the Mongoose Open Day is on this Saturday. I'll be there, running PARANOIA and Babylon 5. Also on the agenda - finding out what the hell happened to certain books that are currently Unproducts, and when exactly they'll be declassified for public purchase.

Comments:
Sooooo... any news on them Unproducts? And will Mongoose be preserving the all-important security-clearance-spectrum cover colouring scheme? :)

No, seriously. If you make non-commercial use of stuff here, that's fine, but we reserve all commercial rights, and all rights to prepare derivative material on things posted here. In addition, posters of comments must be aware that we reserve the right to use whatever material they post here, and/or derivative works therefrom, in PARANOIA, supplementary products, licensed products, or derivative work, without any compensation whatever, for all time to come and throughout this universe and any alternate universes that may be discovered. At our discretion, and without obligation, we may, if it strikes our fancy, make a good faith effort to credit you for stuff we use, but we can't promise it won't slip our minds, in the hurly-burly of meeting deadlines. (Actually, we intend to do that, but it's possible we'll screw up.) By posting comments, you grant us a non-revocable, perpetual, non-exclusive license to use whatever you post, in whatsoever fashion we deem useful, here or in any other forum, in PARANOIA or in any and all future products, including but not limited to derivative works, and specifically but not exclusively including the microbrewery beer, ale and porter; salty and sugary snack; and tattoo design rights deriving therefrom. Woohoo! Is that enough legalese for you? The Computer is Your Friend.
