Hackers and Rabbits

The city of San Francisco nearly missed being thrown into chaos and all because one guy in their Tech Dept. may have decided to copy the plot from "Die Hard 4." The techie is accused of rigging the city's network to create a meltdown and he is currently sitting in jail awaiting his next day in court. Nevertheless, right before he was arrested, he allegedly made sure network administrators were locked out of the system, which basically means the Sheriff is banging his keyboard right now and screaming, "Dude, I can't check my email!"

I figure the suspect is using this as leverage because the Mayor had to visit him in jail and ask the guy if he could pretty please give him the passwords. I could just imagine the Mayor getting there and talking to the police commissioner:

Mayor: What do we know about this guy?
Commissioner: We searched his clothes and pockets. All we found were USB sticks and lint.
Mayor: Shit, son.

...and now for my new favorite commercial:
