If you hack the code how does that affect the software license and
ownership of the software?
Seems like Legal would not be happy.

Hi
As the simplest of answers,
"Unauthorised access to computer material". Being a phone does not
stop
it also vbeing a computer for the definition of the Act.
Just because the data is not secure does not make the act legal.
I fail to see how the person could argue that the data was public.
This
would be impossible if the device was not broadcasting but only
responded.
Regards
Craig

Subject: Legality of blue tooth hacking
What is the current legality of blue tooth hacking?
At a recent Cisco security product meeting, I observed a security
practice director outside snarfing phone numbers and addresses from
the
various people who were attending the meeting. He got up and presented
the information saying there was no law preventing him from snarfing
information. I seem to recall attending a conference a while back
where
the laws regarding this type of blue tooth snarfing was discussed.
thanks for the assistance
