A printer at a private home in Arlington was hacked to produce an unsolicited racist and antisemitic flyer as part of a widespread network printer hack, according to a joint statement from the Arlington Police Department (APD) and the Arlington Human Rights Commission (AHRC).
According to the statement, police responded to a call from a private home in Arlington where an older model HP printer produced a flyer from "samiz.dat" entitled "Why am I Getting a Bowlcut," which police say advocates violence against non-whites.
Police added that the incident appeared to be a part of a widespread printer hack by known hacker Andrew Auernheimer, otherwise known as "Weev," who explained via Twitter that he had exploited networked printers earlier this month.
