US bookselling chain Barnes & Noble has banned an issue of Linux
Format magazine which featured a "Learn to Hack" article. This
covered how to attack servers, crack passwords, exploit services, beat
encryption, etc.

Linux Format has put the article on line for free. (Could be a topic
for a meeting sometime?)

I wonder how Barnes & Noble will cope with the latest issue of the
magazine, which has leading article "Beat the CIA". And it seems a
bit inconsistent from B&N, considering they carry other publications
like 2600 magazine.

And the fortnightly Linux Format podcast is usually worth a listen.
