The Internet of Things is coming….to a highway sign near you.

In the latest reminder that much of the United State’s “critical infrastructure” is held together with the internet equivalent of spit and glue, authorities in several US states are reporting that a hacker has once again broken into and defaced electronic road signs on highways.

Earlier last week, news media in North Carolina reported that at least three highway signs there had apparently been compromised and re-worded to read “Hack by Sun Hacker.” Similar incidents were reported between May 27 and June 2, 2014 in two other states, which spotted variations on that message left by the perpetrator, (including an invitation to chat with him on Twitter).
