Every year there’s a hacker conference, called DefCon, that allows black hats and white hats to come together to out-impress each other. It just let out this weekend and there’s usually a good flow of interesting news. Here’s a bit.

While trying to get hotel pr0n without paying for it, this guy discovered some interesting vulnerabilities in the TV-remote-based system that most hotels use. Here are some of the things that can be done:

• Get free smut (gotta start with that one)
• Unlock the minibar
• View and alter the bills of other guests
• Read another guest’s email

So the next time you’re at a conference with an annoying colleague, just throw 20 nips of Smirnoff and a showing Kookoo for Cocoa Cocks on her bill.
