defrauding public transportation companies (especially deutsche bahn) for free tickets is based and morally correct, going on stage at CCC to snitch is lame and counter revolutionary. yes we get it, you know how to decode a QR code, but to also play wannabe cop/ticket inspector, that's a really weird personal choice to make. this community has really lost its way. evergreen: https://archives.phrack.org/issues/68/16.txt #39c3

the CCC will let you go on stage and name and shame some small time cyber criminal who's not been accused, let alone convicted of any crimes, but try doing the same to out a sexual predator in their own ranks and watch them all collectively lose their shit 😹

@mcr314 I believe public transit should be free at the point of use and that any security research making fare evasion or ticket fraud more difficult is inherently morally unethical. If I found something like this, I would have replicated the method of creating fraudulent tickets and made it available to everyone for free. Or just kept my mouth shut.

@fisk The two presented ways were:- buying deutschland-tickets with invalid banking details- somehow get access to the private signing key of a companyNothing legal or easy.I agree, that public transport should be cheaper.But the financial damage is paid by a big part by the tax payer. So I dont have sympathy with these fraudsters.

@Tobiwan that is in fact the exact political position I already said I support - public transit should be free at the point of use because taxes already pay for it. I don't base my moral compass on what's legal or not. I actually think stealing the UCI private key was probably a much cooler hack than what was presented and would rather see a talk from the person who did it, than a snitch.
