London Millionaire Accused of Involvement in Hacking Ring, Say Investigators

According to this CNET Article, ‘a high-profile London society millionaire is among a group of defendants accused of being part of a phone-tapping and computer hacking scheme that gathered confidential information on wealthy people and businesses. He has been charged with conspiracy to cause unauthorized modification of computer material.’

Update: the CNET Article has now disappeared. I’m not entirely sure what’s going on here — perhaps the lawyers of a certain London millionaire obtained a supression order. In any case, best to treat this one with a grain of salt.
