If there's one thing that has precluded hackers and researchers from cracking Bluetooth, it's been the $10,000 price tag of the sniffer tools involved to do so. But look out: European researchers have now broken that price barrier with a prototype hacking tool based on a $30 Bluetooth USB dongle. The USB-based sniffer tool lets you eavesdrop on a Bluetooth communication session, and teamed up with other tools, access encrypted data on Bluetooth devices.

Among the most notable cases: An Air Canada Pilot encountering a fast moving light in front of his/her Boeing 767, automatically triggering its Tactical Collision Avoidance System; A man driving along a highway saw three orbs perform various maneuvers, including flying right by car.
