'You Hacked,' Cyber Attackers Crash Muni Computer System Across SF
http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2016/11/26/you-hacked-cyber-attackers-crash-muni-computer-system-across-sf/
You Hacked, ALL Data Encrypted.' That was the message on San
Francisco Muni station computer screens across the city,
giving passengers free rides all day on Saturday. Inside
sources say the system has been hacked for days. SFMTA has
officially confirmed the hack, but says it has not affected
any service. A spokesperson with the transit agency tells
KPIX 5 it is an ongoing investigation. "There's no impact to
the transit service, but we have opened the fare gates as a
precaution to minimize customer impact," said Muni
spokesperson Paul Rose. "Because this is an ongoing
investigation it would not be appropriate to provide
additional details at this point."

The correct term is "Internet" NOT "internet" -- please don't
fall into the trap of using the latter. It's just plain wrong!
