In 1999, a group of hackers used home computers to break into the systems controlling Skynet... Way to go, John Connor!

The incident is the latest in which "hackers" - many of them young computer experts - have broken into computer systems.
A 20-year-old was questioned in New Zealand last year suspected of writing programs for an internet "spyware" scam targeting several hundred thousand bank accounts. In 1999, a group of hackers used home computers to break into the systems controlling Skynet, a British military satellite, and changed secure settings. A report by the US Federal Aviation Administration this week raised concerns that a passenger aboard the new Boeing 787 "Dreamliner" aircraft might be able to hack into the aircraft's systems via its internet connection. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...milies/lol.gif $insert(standard_summary.topic="hackers") |

They don't say what technology was/is used to operate the switches. Anyone know?

I doubt it's IR because that is very short range and wouldn't work when there was fog or heavy rain. The article says that the device looked like a TV remote, not that it operated like a TV remote.

Maybe he was very amused?

Maybe he suffered temporary amnesia and forgot he already laughed at the joke?
|
Maybe he was amused about being amused about something while being drunk
|
Maybe he was preemptively amused by the reactions he was going to provoke?
