Hackers PWN Dateline NBC Reporter

I know I'm late to the game on this, but I have a friend who was at Defcon 15 over the weekend and so I just had to post something. What was funny is how paranoid he was. He was was using wifi from his room and he was 100% sure that with so many people with mad haqing skillz around, all communication was being intercepted. As if sending up-to-the-minute Lindsay Lohan updates was information that somehow needed to be protected.....

Anyway, the crux of the story is that Dateline's Michelle Madigan went to Defcon "undercover". She's better know for her involvement in Dateline's "To Catch a Predator" series. She was told to wear a press pass, but didn't. Apparently she was trying to use hidden cameras, maybe to catch some hackers doing....whatever. But she was found out and--literally-chased off.

Hilarious video below.

Hat tip: the Jawa who is no longer a Jawa but really still is a Jawa.
