That’s the man, officer
The Hidden App for Mac OSX claims "If your computer is stolen, Hidden will show you where it is and who has it." - a bold claim, I thought, perhaps even doubting whether it was possible.
Joshua Kaufman quashed any doubts I had, however, when he demonstrated the genius of this app when his Macbook was stolen recently in Oakland, CA. He managed to record not only screenshots of the thief deleting his account, but also images of the rogue himself - and what better to do with these images than pop them on a website so everyone can follow along. Head over to the This Guy Has My Macbook site to see the scoundrel in action.
Updates are going to be less frequent now, however, as it seems Oaklands finest have apprehended the villain. Sadly there are no webcams in the slammer so we unfortunately won't be able to enjoy watching the varmint getting a taste of hard time.
Ya doity rat!
