FEDS RAID ELECTRONIC HOBBY VENDORS 2600 has learned that several small electronic hobbyist vendors were recently raided by federal
agents brandishing semiautomatic weapons. News of these raids has been
kept out of the media and many of those involved fear retribution if
they openly discuss the case. Until now, these companies had
operated for years selling harmless educational electronic kits (like
wireless microphones) to students, hobbyists, ham radio operators, and
hackers. Now their inventories are being seized at gunpoint--and their
owners could be facing bankruptcy and prison time.
