This might be something we look into for our class project on practical cryptography later in the semester.

Keurig's K-Cup coffee DRM cracked - Boing Boing - 0 views

coffee DRM fywscrypto

I think we can count this as cryptography. Keurig (the "K-cup" coffee maker) recently rolled out a new coffee maker that only works on coffee pods with special ink markers on their foil tops, meaning that knock-off coffee pods won't work on the new Keurig systems. (More info here: http://www.theverge.com/2014/6/30/5857030/keurig-digital-rights-management-coffee-pod-pirates.) This DRM-like scheme has now been hacked by competitors.
