Cyclist Floyd Landis Accused Of Illegal Computer Hacking
from the doping-and-hacking dept
Apparently, a French court has issued an arrest warrant for cyclist Floyd Landis, who won the 2006 Tour de France, but then had the award stripped after he tested positive for abnormally high levels of testosterone, implying some kind of doping. Now, we've argued in the past that the line between drugs and other forms of performance enhancement is pretty blurry at times, but if you're caught breaking the rules, hacking into the computers of the lab holding your test results in an attempt to discredit them certainly doesn't look particularly sporting.

Or that they didn't spike his food? Or needle him in his sleep?
The whole story with Floyd Landis was weird to begin with and keeps getting weirder. I doubt the truth will ever be known.

Landis Was Framed
If you didn't know anything about the Landis case, if Landis was guilty, and he knew, it, what good would hacking into the lab do for him? How would getting at their records prove his innocence if he was actually guilty?
This is a case where the lab withheld and destroyed crucial evidence. I am inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Re: Landis
So, you're saying CNET lied? Show your evidence or I'm inclined to think you're the one lying.

Re: Landis Was Framed
The theory is that he was fishing for some kind of technicality that he could use to get off. Some place where the lab forgot to cross a T or dot an I, so to speak.
