Old News- U- Lock hacked by a Bic pen

Kryptonite Evolution 2000 U- Lock hacked by a Bic pen - Misc. Gadgets - gadgets.engadget.com So this has been out in the blogsphere for a few days now, but it's also made it into the mainstream press. Unfortunately there's not a whole lot you can do about this one except get an older u-lock ( harder to pick), or to get a lock without a cylindrical lock system. I think at this point it's safe to say that there's gonna be a lot of bay area redistribution of bikes. Interestingly enough this hack has been around for a long time, it just got out into the blogsphere recently, and there are plenty of theives who surf the internet.
