A dutch judge has said to have allowed the publishing of the ‘oyster card hack’, which is used to copy oyster cards for use on the London Transport Network, yesterday.

The ruling overturns an injunction to suppress the information won by NXP – makers of the travel smartcards used in London and many other cities.

The injunction was sought in June 2008 after Dutch researchers demonstrated how to copy cards and travel free on the London Underground.

The researchers plan to publish their research in October.
