From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nicolas Jacobsen is a hacker who, during much of 2004, had unlawful access to the backbone of the T-Mobile USA network. Besides stealing classified US Secret Service documents and selling them on IRC, he amused himself and friends by finding out celebrity phone numbers (including that of Paris Hilton, Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher) and intercepting recently made photos from their handsets. He was captured by the Secret Service in October 2004, but not many details of the trial have been released to the public. According to some sources, the Secret Service might be trying to hire him to help them capture other hackers.
