Hackers seem to have "teased" her electric skates companys Lime as a result of which they start cursing the riders. The company, clearly annoyed, called the event "not smart" and "not funny".
Lime's wireless electric scooters, which have flooded the world and can be found in Athens and Thessaloniki, appear to have been the victims of a humorous hacker in Brisbane, Australia. The hacker managed to modify them to reproduce inappropriate voice recordings, a hack that the company did not enjoy at all.
The voice messages heard from the e-scooters, recorded through their mobile phones by the users who went to use them and uploaded to social media networks. In these you will hear the skates saying “Don't take me. I don't like running” (via a video on twitter from 7News Brisbane), or "If you are going to drive my ass, then please pull my hair, OK?", (via a video posted on YouTube).
Skaters normally reproduce sounds when they work, for example when are unlocked. Last year, the Guardian said that a Lime skate in Oakland was scheduled to shout, "Unlock me to drive me, or I'll call the police," if anyone just bothered.
According to the company, the hacker violated physics door of files ήχου, τοπικά σε κάθε πατίνι, και δεν απόκτησε πρόσβαση στο operating system their. Eight skates in total were affected and have now been withdrawn from use.
