Some of you might still remember the story of three Polish hackers who helped a train operator get their trains back working, after the manufacturer had bricked them. If not, there is a fascinating article here, which reads like a thriller. And there is also a video for those preferring that medium.

Now, there's more happening:

Yesterday, Polish Police entered the train manufacturer's headquarters and seized documents and computer media as evidence for the alleged wrongdoing of the manufacturer.

(The manufacturer tried to lock in the operator to the manufacturer's expensive services, to prevent another certified train servicing company from servicing the trains at a better price. ⬆️)
