So in the early 2000's, I worked for a firm that was hired by a major satellite TV provider to investigate Smart Card hacking.
It was a very eye opening experience for a recent grad and would be happy to write up some of my experiences if people are interested.

- artjumble 6y agoI would be interested in reading about this. Around that time (or maybe slightly before) I was asked by my friends dad to figure this out. He and a group of his friends payed for the equipment and gave it to me. I figured it out, but when they found out that the "hack" would be reset at least every month and before any major event they all found it too problematic to deal with. Worked out great for me as I got free satellite TV for a while when I was going to school.
