Judge lifts fare card hack gag order, punts on 1st Amendment
In court today, Judge George O’Toole refused the Massachussetts Bay Transit Authority’s request to impose an additional five-month gag order against five students the MBTA had accused of violating Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA). Prior to this point, the students had been subject to a 10-day gag order which prevented them from presenting a paper on the flaws within the MBTA’s transit system at DEF CON earlier this month.
