Former Cisco Engineer Arrested for Hacking!

Peter Alfred-Adekeye, a British national who worked for Cisco before leaving to start his own company, was arrested in May 2010 in Vancouver, Canada, on 97 counts of accessing a protected computer without authorization. His new company, Multiven, filed an antitrust lawsuit against Cisco in 2008, claiming that it is stifling competition by forcing its customers to sign service contracts to receive software updates. Multiven claims that Cisco pushed for the case against Alfredekeye in order to force a settlement, which it eventually obtained in July, 2010, two months after his arrest.
