    Time has, however, moved on, and the world that spawned the Apple I doesn’t exist anymore

    […]

    "I’ll tune in the Raspberry Pi to the airplane’s network … and then I’ll have a little five-dollar Raspberry Pi Zero, I’ll have it put on a second Wi-Fi of its own and name the network ‘spanky’ with no password. Everyone on the plane can log in… eleven people connected. So I started using it as a honeypot.

    Somebody should tell Woz that this is something else that doesn’t exist anymore: if you play pranks on airplanes today and you get caught, you’re labeled a terrorist, go on a secret no-fly list and enter a world of shit.
