Apple Sends Takedown Notice To iPod Hacker's ISP

Some guy with a broken iPod Touch decided he was going to hack the thing and see what makes it tick. Well, that’s what the plan was before Apple showed up at his ISP with a takedown notice.

But even before his upload finished, we're told, his ISP showed up, with a takedown notice in hand. Apple had somehow found his site, had contacted his ISP, and let them know that it would be against copyright law for him to upload that code to the Internet.
