Pirate in Jersey City has been hacking Comcast audio on a major TV Network

Someone is BRAVE, albeit an idiot by hacking into a National Television station recently. Seems that someone likes to pirate the audio portion of the popular Law and Order series seen most usually in all day marathons, these morons have actually hacked into Comcast Master Control, and took control of the actual broadcast audio with such great songs as as Dj Redbone "Who the F*** is Chuck" and another classic from Tech N9NE "Put Her in the Truck". Also the RF coming off this Luxury Apartment building in JC, is so loud you can hear the actual audio on the metal grating along the south part of the building. I wouldn't touch that on a rainy wet day.

I know the FCC as well as JC Police are on a lead, for that matter most likely HomeLand Security as well.

I think Comcast oughta see if they have any employees who live in this building....say on the third or fourth floor.
 
I dont think someone would actually do all that.
Perhaps its just a pirate that is transmitting on the Fm or Am band and its just so happen to be coming through your tv channels...
Seriously whos going to go though the trouble of hacking into a cable system?
What would be the motive?
 
It gives them the thrill of being in control of something they are simply not . I have optical right out of the digital cable box, so impossible to penetrate that with a RF. Also I didn't mention before when they (Law and Order on USA) faded out of a scene the hackers music also faded. Also interestingly enough they were running some mix show that contained Stanford Kentucky radio station with the calls WPBK, is a small town radio station with a Christian Format which would have never run on that station. There are your 2 connections I'd check out one common denominator.
 
How stupid. Everybody knows that nobody will ever top the cable employee who switched the TV signal to a porn feed during last year's Super Bowl!
