In compiling this list of the craziest cyber crimes, PC Mag looked for a few things: ingenuity (had it been done before?), scope (how many computers, agencies, companies, sites, etc. did it affect?), cost (how much in monetary damages did it cause?), and historical significance (did it start a new trend?).

A team of researchers has developed a thin sheet of plastic containing billions of nano antennas that are able to collect solar energy even after the sun has gone down. The process is cheap and once collection and storage issues are perfected, it could revolutionize the solar industry.
