A British-based computer scientist has been banned from publishing an academic paper revealing the secret codes used to start luxury cars including Porsches, Audis, Bentleys and Lamborghinis as it could lead to the theft of millions of vehicles, a judge has ruled.

Science has become a taboo, what's next?

Obscurity is best security!

Now only the bad guys have access, alright thats fine with me.
I sold my last porsche so I dont really care.

The judge doesn't think anybody, including myself, yourself, your 5-year-old son/daughter could repeat the work and sell it to the crooks.
-
I bet the government can force the car manufacturers to give up the codes, without even using a court order, and they will say this is for national security. But when scientists try to do the same, no, it's a crime.
Fuck you planet earth.
