This was going to eventually happen. It comes to show how interesting the tech world is; you create a top secret password destruction tool for the goverment, then it gets leaked out onto the Web, and then to fight against it, you’re hit by some DECAF created by even more hackers.

I’m talking about Microsoft COFEE, the god-like bypass program for goverments. Recently smart hackers have gotten their paws on COFEE, and distrubuted it. But now, another group of hackers have created DECAF, the also god-like password blocking program, which can beat every one of COFEE’s moves, making it as light as –uh– decaf.
