This is a part of the code of the federal trojan discovered by CCC.

Note: The print contains obviously german code comments and the code stems from a function called "_0zapftis_file_execute". 0zapftis="O zapft is"=bavarian saying on the Oktoberfest when they open the first barrel of beer.

Not printed here (at least I didn't see it) is the AES private key and the names of C3P0, R2D2 and POE.

This is great. I literally ran to my parents bin and picked it up the moment i saw it here on HN. Not that the regular FAZ reader would understand anything, but i think this is will make a lot of people think about the importance of code. It's hidden and controls most parts of everybodies lifes.

I am really glad seeing germany being active like this concerning tech topics.
